Light and shadow player

Chapter 363

Liu Shishi has almost no achievements in movies, but the field of TV dramas will be the king of bombs this year!

"Scary Step by Step" is on the air!

On January 1, it took over Mango Channel's "I Accidentally Fall in Love with You", and the ratings of the two episodes on the first day rose from CSM 31 to 35, ranking first in market share.

Except for the one-day suspension of the rebroadcast of the Spring Festival Gala on February 2, the ratings of "Scary Step by Step" never dropped below 2, and the highest reached 1.7.
By the time Cheng Yuan flew to Toronto, the average ratings of "Scary Step by Step" had stabilized at 3.0.
Now that Liu Shishi is walking in the company, who doesn't call her sister Shi Shi?

Several dramas to be broadcast have started to promote in advance.

The most intuitive impact is that Liu Shishi's worth has skyrocketed!

The quotation for commercial performances exceeded one million, and dozens of endorsements came to the door.

A "Scary Step By Step" made Liu Shishi faintly have the momentum of the first sister of the remote TV series.

LeEco directly bid 2000 million yuan to buy out the exclusive online broadcast rights of "Scary Step by Step", but Long-distance ignored it.

"Startling By Every Step" sold dozens of satellite TV and terrestrial channels in the second and third rounds, and Yaoyuan vowed to push "Startling By Every Step" to the highest level.

The popularity of "Scary Step by Step" made the crew of "Gong" very frustrated.

"Gong" was broadcast only one week later than "Scary by Step", and the ratings were of course very good, with an average of 1.5 in the early period, but "Scary By every step" occupied the number one gimmick in Qingchuan. In terms of marketing and business, it is " Palace" is incomparable.

Then, it suddenly broke out that "Gong" plagiarized "Scary Step By Step", which instantly pushed Yu Zheng to the forefront of public opinion.

"Long-distance film and television has inherited the delicacy of Tang Ren and Zhou Yi in costume TV dramas. "Scary Step by Step" can make the audience feel the sincerity of the elaborate production, whether it is the characters, the scenery or the props, even the beginning and the end of the film. In contrast, "Palace" is too rough."

"The same Qing Chuan, the same nine sons win the heir, it's hard to say who copied who, but "Scary Step by Step" is obviously more serious than "Gong". As for the heroine, Liu Shishi is better than Yuan Shan in terms of appearance and temperament Shan is even more outstanding."

Neither side responded to the controversy over the two plays.

Even Tong Hua, the original author of "Scary Step by Step", avoided answering similar questions during the event.

On the other side of the ocean, the crew of "Hunting" is looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally the director is here.

Cheng Yu'an plunged into the film crew. He was already a few days late in China, and in addition to rushing to attend the Oscars, he would be delayed. He had to go all out these few days.

"Crack! Very good." Sitting on the director's chair, Cheng Yu'an shouted.

Liu Yifei, who was sitting on the side, was so bored: "Why don't you talk about drama, every day is action and click."

"I'll give you Matthew McConaughey and Hugh Grant and Roger Deakins, and you can do the same."

Such a team still needs the director to talk about the play, so it's fine if they die.

"Take a good look at Matthew and Grant's acting and study hard. They are both good actors at the national treasure level."

It's still cold in Toronto, but that's what The Hunt wants.

After three days of filming, Du Amei flew from the United States to visit the set.

"Hunting" is a play that Mark Muller personally made an appointment with. It can be said that this film has been written in the list of the main competition unit from the moment he finished the appointment call.

Duame deserved to come and see.

"Marc will step down as festival president next year," Duame said. "This year he personally invited many people to Venice."

Of course Cheng Yu'an has feelings for Venice, after all, he came from Venice.

But there was really nothing he could do about Venice's plight.

Cannes is very comfortable with its strong trading market, while Venice and Berlin have indeed gone downhill in the past two years.

Art films are becoming less popular. Although the three major European films are still the highest palaces in the hearts of filmmakers all over the world, their attention is indeed difficult to match with Oscars.

Du Amei stayed on the set for a long time and then went back.

Cheng Yu'an continued filming.

Now we are going to shoot the scene where the protagonist Lucas is bullied by the clerk while shopping in the mall, and the two sides fight.

The whole town of Lucas misunderstood that he raped the little girl, and his beloved dog was killed by a stranger last night.

The scene was intense, with five days on the schedule.

"Let's try it first." Cheng Yu'an said, "Action."

Matthew McConaughey stands in front of the butcher stand with a basket.

"I want two pork chops."

While cutting the meat, the salesperson looked up at Matthew: "No."

But he clearly saw the pork chops in the container, and pointed to the freezer:

"I want this pork chop."

The salesperson showed an impatient and disgusted expression: "I don't sell it."

Matthew looked at the salesperson with a complicated expression, struggled on the spot, opened his mouth to say something, but didn't know what to say, after hesitating for two steps, he said softly but firmly: "I have the right to come here."

The tall and strong salesman put down the knife and showed a fierce look: "Get out, get out."

But Lucas didn't care, he still wanted to buy it: "I want these two pork chops."

The salesperson wiped his hands, walked out, and punched Lucas in the face without saying a word.

Lucas struggled to get up, and the manager came up and said, "Get out of my shop now, don't come here again." Seeing Lucas stand up, the manager said, "You are not welcome here."

Matthew crushed the small blood bag, drew a nosebleed on himself, stood up and said, "He hit me, how could he hit someone casually." He said he wanted to go up to the salesman to argue.

Two mall employees next to him jogged over and grabbed him.

"Can you hit anyone casually, ah."

"Get out, you are not welcome here."

"Don't touch me, I'll go by myself."

"Crack!" Cheng Yu'an shouted to stop.

"Lucas, you have to be more aggrieved, but still stubborn."

Matthew was OK on the set.

"Martin (salesperson), don't be too aggressive. You are just an ordinary salesperson. You just want to drive him away and make the meat cutting sound quieter."

"OK."

"Okay, it was good just now, let's do it again."

Cheng Yu'an took five and a half days to film this indoor scene, and walked through it more than 30 times.

"I looked into Matthew's eyes on purpose. The dull and stubborn eyes are really good." These days, she will be watching on the set, and she often asks Matthew for advice.

"He can change more than a dozen acting methods in one scene, each of which is very flavorful." Liu Yifei boasted.

"Although Matthew has not won many awards, he has always been a well-known actor in Hollywood. Many producers like to work with him very much." Cheng Yu'an said, "Lucas is not his best role. He is best at playing characters who are sick or even crazy, and he is good at using micro-expressions and small body movements. If you look at the scene of the shopping mall, his eyes and small steps are very good."

After filming this scene, the production crew will temporarily rest for two days, because the Oscars are opening, not only Cheng Yu'an will be present, but many actors and staff members in the same group will temporarily leave the group.

The nominations have been announced, with "The Social Network," "The King's Speech" and "Inception" from a major studio.

"The Social Network" is not active in public relations because the director David Fincher has missed too many pre-show awards. The academy feels that he does not respect the Oscars, and the probability of winning this year's awards is very low.

Films like "Inception" are naturally not liked by the old white men in the academy, and it is estimated that they can only win a few technical awards.

Looking at it this way, "The King's Speech", which is not favored in front of the station, has the highest chance of winning the award.

"Cheng, I wish you a good grade this year."

"Thank you, see you Oscar."

The next day, Cheng Yuan flew back to Los Angeles with his girlfriend.
