Light and shadow player

Chapter 281
Because "The Martian" and "2012" went against the market, the three-day holiday of New Year's Day rose.

It is estimated that there are [-] million.

Seize the time remotely and carry out the last wave of publicity for "The Martian".

With a market of 2 million, it would not be too much for "The Martian", which has been released for two months, to bite another 2000 million.

"Avatar" will be released in the mainland on the 4th, and other films will not survive.

No, there are still warriors who are not afraid of death to enter the January file: Fa Ge's "Confucius".

Mr. Zhou's New Year's Eve is a disaster.

"Confucius" in January, "Su Qier" in February, can't be said to be big bad movies, but they are not good.

If you want to say that Mr. Zhou doesn't know that these two can't sell at the box office, it's impossible.

Therefore, Mr. Zhou, who is working hard in business, looks very pitiful.

The grand slam has been won, and there are blockbusters like "The Wind" at the box office.

There is also a "Painted Skin 2" waiting for me that is sure to sell well, so at least in the promotion of "Confucius", Mr. Zhou behaved a little relaxed or even perfunctory.

"Don't smoke here." Mr. Zhou was sitting on the sofa in Cheng Yu'an's house with his legs crossed and smoking.

"You haven't seen a single customer here for a year or so, I'll increase your popularity." Mr. Zhou has his own set of fallacies.

"I watched the film, and it's neat and tidy, neither exciting nor ugly." Cheng Yu'an changed the subject, "This kind of regularity can be forgiven if it is placed on other subjects, but it is an unforgivable mistake when it is placed on Confucius."

"Director Hu Mei still committed the common fault of directors of his generation. He couldn't keep the balance between art and commerce."

"If you were asked to photograph Confucius, what would you do?" Mr. Zhou asked him.

But Cheng Yu'an shook his head: "I don't have the ability to shoot Confucius in 90 to 120 minutes. This proposition is too huge."

"Confucius is best made into a TV series, with dozens of episodes showing his life in detail, but Zhang Xinjian's "Confucius" in 91 is unsurpassable. The best era of epic biopics has passed."

This is really not Cheng Yu'an's self-effacing, he is really not sure to make a good film of Confucius in the form of a movie.

"If it is necessary to make a movie, Hu Mei can learn from "Red Cliff" and make two parts, or even a trilogy. This kind of capacity is enough. But literary films do not allow her to do so."

"So she ended with Confucius Xiu Chunqiu, 'Later generations understand me because of this book; they misunderstand me because of this book', so it's not about Hu Mei herself. I believe she was the same when she received this movie. One head and two big."

Although Cheng Yu'an always felt that Hu Mei's "Confucius" was not well filmed, he did not criticize it too much. Someone needs to make this kind of epic biopic.

After staying with Young Master Zhou for dinner, Cheng Yu'an sent her back.

Before Mr. Zhou left, he did not forget to urge him: "When will you give me the new play you promised me?"

"Your film appointments are already scheduled for the next year, and I'm still missing my role. I heard that Mr. Xu wants to ask you to make a 3D movie. It should be very interesting."

What Cheng Yu'an was talking about was "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate", the first 3D movie in Chinese in the true sense.

Cheng Yu'an is not a techie, he is not that interested in 3D, and he doesn't think 3D will replace 2D.But Mr. Xu moved his mind after seeing the popularity of the 3D "Avatar" in the market.

I heard that they are currently investigating 3D shooting.

"That play, I thought it was interesting, so I took it. Hey, that's right." Mr. Zhou said, "Is your company still short of people?"

The contract between Mr. Zhou and Huayi expires in 10 years, and she definitely won't renew it.

"What? Want to sign with a company?" Cheng Yu'an smiled, "I don't think you need to sign a company. Whether you set up a personal studio or start your own company, hang it under the remote banner. We will manage it for you and you sign it yourself. Newcomers, looking for a project, the company will give priority to finding you if there is a drama, isn't this better than signing a company?"

The price-performance ratio of signing her is really too low. Signing three golden shadows is no less than inviting a Bodhisattva to the company. Once she comes, the position of Sissy's first sister will definitely be given up.

The company will definitely have to customize a script for her at that time.

Another one, artist managers have the same style as artist managers, and how to sign a contract is also a big problem for her.

Can Cai Yinong command her?

If you have the money to sign three golden actresses, it is better to sign a few more newcomers, which is more affordable and easier to manage (press).

Mr. Zhou knew Cheng Yu'an's considerations, and said that he couldn't find a more suitable next home when he signed the long-distance contract. On a whim, he said before leaving that he would consider what he said when he went back.

…………

At the celebration banquet before, Cheng Yu'an said that he thought of a scene that was very suitable for Tong Liya. This was the first reaction in his mind at the time, and his mouth came out as soon as he bald.

But when Cheng Yu'an moved his mouth, Tong Liya really listened.

These days, he has been pestering his agent, wanting to find out what the play the boss promised was.

She also went to the literature department every day to see if there were any new scripts.

The manager was annoyed by her, so he simply said: "The company's latest play is called "The Dark Side". It has already been given to Yang Xue and Wan Qian, and I haven't heard of any new script."

"He is such a busy person, his mouth is going to be bald for a while, and he may forget it when he turns around."

Tong Liya thinks about it for the same reason, but she is not reconciled, and even ran to the racecourse alone to "encounter" Cheng Yu'an.

Really met her by chance.

Seeing Tong Liya coming, Cheng Yu'an guessed what she wanted to do by seeing her vague expression.

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said, "There is a play, and I have already handed over the outline to the Literature Department."

Tong Liya is a pure newcomer, it is impossible to get words out of the mouth of the screenwriter of the literature department.

Although that play was just an idea that Cheng Yu'an accidentally had when he saw Tong Liya at the celebration banquet, but after thinking about it seriously, it really suits her now.

Black and thin, dry and sticky, the whole image of an ugly duckling.

Tong Liya was afraid that she would leave a bad impression on Cheng Yu'an if she came so recklessly, and wanted to explain, but Cheng Yu'an said: "It's okay, it's good, you just need to know how to win opportunities for yourself. This is the outline, you take it first." Go back and read, the detailed script will come out after a year."

Tong Liya took the manuscript and took a look. First of all, it was a movie.

This makes her very happy, everyone wants to be in a movie.

The name is "A Little Thing of First Love", and she plays the protagonist Xiao Shui.

"Director Cheng, I'm already 27. Is it appropriate to play this kind of student?" Tong Liya's first reaction when she got the syllabus was not happiness, but low self-esteem.

"Why should I give it to you if it's not suitable?" Cheng Yu'an said, "Prepare well. Although this drama is a bit bloody, the results will not be bad. What drama did the company arrange for you?" Cheng Yu'an began to ask her about the schedule .

"There is a "Weird Hero Yizhimei" later, together with Shi Shi."

"Isn't it a scene that Tang Ren was holding on to before?"

"Ah."

"Starting in a few months."

"May."

"No delay," Cheng Yu'an went through the filming in his mind, ""A Little Thing of First Love" will start shooting in March, and will finish filming in May. You won't be delayed if you join the team two days later."

"Well, thank you Director Cheng."

"Go back, you should be anxious if your manager can't find you." Cheng Yu'an had nothing to say to Tong Liya.

Sure enough, the agent was very dissatisfied with Tong Liya's behavior of directly going over her to find the boss, and wanted to scold her, but seeing that she had already got the script, there was no place to vent her anger, but she also reprimanded her in a strong tone : "This is not an example!"
