Light and shadow player

Chapter 417
Sometimes standing in line is important.

Remote film and television are in full swing, and the films produced basically cover all genres, from science fiction to action, to youth campus, or the main theme. Remote artists, no matter men, women, young or old, as long as they are willing, they are full of work and announcements all year round. Full (earn).

Playing a supporting role remotely for two or three years, if it is a malleable talent, the company will basically arrange a leading role play to test the waters.This condition is fatal to young actors.

Those who come out of the three major academies, who can play the leading role within 5 years, are the best in the class.

There will be no shortage of actors if there is no protagonist, and the large and small crews can let their artists show their faces remotely.

But some people, for whatever reason, just can't see the situation clearly.

Hanxi Pavilion is like this.

The two decided to break up, but she was still on Zhang Weiping's side.

Therefore, the trip to the Golden Globe Awards of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" can only leave her behind.

It is said that the director has achieved Zhang Yimou's level, and the honor is equal to him. At his age, most other international directors have turned to self-expression and started to make some obscure experimental films, but he still has an obsession with international awards.

If he hadn't fallen out with Cannes back then, he would have a great chance of being crowned the three best film grand slams.

However, he has already won the three major jury awards, which is also a remarkable achievement.

The domestic work has come to an end, Zhang Yimou brought Nini and Tong Dawei to Los Angeles Beverly Hills with Cheng Yuan.

He is very interested in the Hollywood awards season and wants to chat with Cheng Yu'an about public relations.

""The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling" came too late. The awards season usually starts in November, and the award-winning films will be released on a small scale in North America first.

"Can it be shown for such a long time?!" Zhang Yimou was surprised, and then his expression collapsed, "Wei Ping was responsible for such things before."

"That's why I say he's not professional," Cheng Yu'an said with a smile, "The North American distributor he found is also very problematic, and its strength is too weak. You want to find Huashi (specializing in overseas distribution of Chinese films) and Lingfeng, not to mention winning awards. , it’s absolutely fine to be nominated for an Oscar, as long as it’s nominated, the overseas box office will look much better.”

Cheng Yu'an still did not forget to complain about Zhang Weiping: "If you shout a few slogans for the Olympics in China and do nothing, the jury will give you an award."

"Then how do you do PR?"

"You have to book a movie for the judges, and organize a reception for them. Be cruel, and you can even bribe the judges."

"Can you still do this kind of black hand?"

"Harvey, this kid once gave a Rolex to the judges." Of course, Cheng Yu'an despised this method, "While promoting your own movie, you also have to discredit your competitors. Before our public relations "The King's Speech", we released a lot of opponents. black stuff."

"How much will that cost?"

Cheng Yu'an explained to him: "It costs more than 200 million US dollars to be nominated for key awards, and it costs at least 1000 million US dollars to win the Oscar for Best Picture. We spent almost 2000 million on "The King's Speech."

It was too late when he took over "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" remotely, and there was really no way back.

When Cheng Yu'an said this, Zhang Yimou also knew that he was hopeless again this year.

Cheng Yu'an talked about his "Hunting": "This year Harvey is too rascal. He made a black and white silent film to please the critics, and the best picture is definitely not gone. "Hunting" has the blessing of the Golden Lion Award, so we can only hope for the best actor .”

Judging from the results of the original time and space, this year "The Artist" will win the Oscars, but Cheng Yu'an is still lucky, hoping to use the Golden Lion to win the leading actor award back.

"I don't have much hope for the Oscars for "Hunting", so the PR director suggested to focus on the more entertaining Golden Globes."

It has only been two or three years since Chinese-language films have attached importance to international awards. When the domestic market has enough food, they don't care so much about Oscars.

Especially after Oscar played political correctness to death.

Well, it's "Moonlight".

This film won the best picture so that the whole world can clearly see the face of Oscar.

Cheng Yu'an, the original time and space, has not paid attention to Oscar since that session - Oscar is dead in his heart.

Speaking of nominations for Best Foreign Language Film at this year's Golden Globe Awards, Zhang Yimou was unlucky.

This year's nominations are all big names: Dardenne Brothers' "The Boy on a Bicycle" won the Cannes Jury Prize; "A Separation" is the most acclaimed Iranian film in recent years; "In the Land of Blood and Honey" is directed by Angelina Jolie, fighting at home; Pedro Almodovar, the director of The Skin I Live In, is more popular in North America than Zhang Yimou.

Zhang Yimou really has no advantage.

"Oh, Director Zhang is here too." Liu Yifei opened the door and entered, only to find that Zhang Yimou was talking to Cheng Yu'an.

"BJ Meets Seattle" was finished in New York, and she got two days to accompany Cheng Yu'an to attend the Golden Globe Awards, and then she will join the group "Pacific Rim" for action training.

"Yifei is here." Zhang Yimou greeted Liu Yifei.

"Director Zhang, I really like you." There is no actor who doesn't want to play Zhang Yimou's play, just like no actor doesn't want to play Cheng Yu'an's play, Liu Yifei held Zhang Yimou's hand tightly.

"Before I came, I said I must visit you." Influenced by Cheng Yu'an, Liu Yifei also liked Zhang Yimou very much.

"I'm already this age, and I'm not as pretty as Yu'an, so what's so interesting about it." Zhang Yimou laughed.

The three chatted some gossip again, Zhang Yimou left without disturbing the young couple's reunion.

Cheng Yu'an asked his girlfriend, "Is "Now You See Me" finalized?"

"It's settled. I'll give it to Reba."

"Who?"

"Reba, the one from "Running Man"."

"I know her. She didn't go to Vancouver, did she? Why did you decide on her?"

"I thought about it later, I will give it to everyone, and I will give it to someone who didn't come." This reason is very willful.

"Actually, I had a video interview with Reba. Her image and figure are very suitable for the role of Henry. Henry has a lot of scenes where he strips and shows his figure. She wants to have breasts and buttocks. It is very suitable." Liu Yifei commented on Reba's figure Always feel weird.

"You don't blame me for giving such a role to a pure rookie."

"No." Cheng Yu'an said that if he didn't intervene, he would not intervene, "Reba's image is very suitable, and you didn't pick the wrong person."

He didn't know Liu Yifei's little thoughts.

Now there is a faint phenomenon of the company's artists forming cliques - it will be inevitable after the company grows bigger, and Cheng Yu'an really can't control it.

Tangtang was brought into the company by Han Yan, and he has the best relationship with Brother Hu. These three people are considered to be a faction.

Because Yang Mi competed for the heroine of "Source Code" before, he didn't get along with Tangtang very much, but was very close to Liu Shishi and Yang Xue.

Tong Liya and Wan Qian are the queens of long-distance TV dramas, and it is another wave with Lei Jiayin and her fellow villager Nazha.

Reba mixes with variety shows, and doesn't mix with either side.

The role of Henry is actually cheaper for her.Liu Yifei also wanted to take the opportunity to win over a few people by her side.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu'an is one head and two big.

There are too many people, and the team is not easy to lead.

It seems that they have to find an opportunity to let them go out and open a studio to support themselves.
