Light and shadow player

Chapter 464

Liu Yifei's leisure time in China lasted until the Golden Horse Awards, and then she will fly to the United States to do pre-start training for "Interstellar".

"Yeah." Liu Yifei announced "Interstellar" when participating in Burberry's brand event, "The next film will be a collaboration with director Nolan, and it will be a science fiction film."

"This film has been in preparation for more than two years, and it will be launched in March and April next year...will first go to the United States for training."

"Nervous? It's okay, I'm good friends with Nolan and Emma, ​​and we understand each other."

"Next year? Apart from this drama, I really haven't confirmed any other jobs next year. Maybe I will take a long vacation."

While Liu Yifei was being interviewed, Liu Xiaoli came to her.

Xingshi asks guilt!

"Why don't you let Sissy accept "The Last War"?"

The daughter officially replied to the godfather two days ago, saying that she couldn't accept the drama.

Liu Xiaoli thought it was Cheng Yu'an who instigated it.

"Ah?" Cheng Yu'an was dumbfounded when asked by her mother-in-law, "I didn't even know there was this drama, and Yifei didn't tell me about it."

Liu Yifei did not mention it to Cheng Yu'an. She found someone in the United States to evaluate the film, and the answer she got was that this film was not popular in Hollywood, and the producer and distributor were not big companies. It's a good film, but the production experience is not very rich, and it is not a big factory in the field of independent production. Nicolas Cage's reputation in Hollywood is already bad.

On the whole, this is a movie that is not worth investing in or participating in.

Only then did Liu Yifei reject the godfather's invitation.

Liu Xiaoli saw that Cheng Yu'an didn't seem to be lying, and Liu Yifei really didn't tell him about the play, so she told Cheng Yu'an about "The Last War".

The more Cheng Yu'an heard it, the more he felt something was wrong. This story is so familiar.

Isn't this "Legend of the White Phantom: Escape"!

What's so good about this movie? With Liu Yifei's current perspective, it's no wonder she can like it.

But Cheng Yu'an still said: "Auntie, let me call and ask."

Cheng Yu'an called her American producer Sarah to ask about the film.

Sarah said that Liu Yifei also asked her before, but she persuaded Liu Yifei not to accept: "The crew is very unprofessional, Nick Powell is an assistant director who has never directed a movie before switching careers, Nicolas Cage is now Hollywood box office poison, this film I guess I didn't even intend to release it in North America, just to make a fortune in the Chinese market in the name of Sino-US co-production."

Sarah said this is considered polite, if she hadn't taken into account the face of the boss and the proprietress, she would have said that this film was to go to China to swindle money.

Cheng Yu'an played Sarah's words to Liu Xiaoli in the car.

Liu Xiaoli had an ugly expression: "But its investment of 3000 million US dollars..."

Sarah heard Liu Xiaoli's voice and knew it was the proprietress's mother. She also knew a little Chinese, so she replied, "Madam, it's almost impossible in Hollywood to make a war epic with such an investment. Crystal managed to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood, no You should have taken the film so hastily, you should trust more professional people."

Sometimes the bad guys should let outsiders do it.

Sarah turned a corner and said that she and Godfather Chen were unprofessional and had bad vision.

With Cheng Yu'an here, what are you messing around with?

Liu Xiaoli was speechless by Sarah. Cheng Yuan hung up the phone and said to her, "Auntie, you heard it too. This movie is not as good as it looks on the surface. It is her own choice not to accept it."

Liu Xiaoli didn't get too entangled in this matter. It seemed that Cheng Yu'an really didn't know about the movie "The Last War", and it was entirely her daughter's decision not to accept the movie.

At first, she felt that her daughter was controlled by Cheng Yu'an too tightly, and she listened to Cheng Yu'an in every scene. This made Liu Xiaoli very unhappy, and felt that Liu Yifei had no initiative by Cheng Yu'an's side.

Looking at it now, it was her daughter's own idea. Although she rejected her film contract with her godfather, Liu Xiaoli was quite happy. She felt that after her daughter left her, she was not completely reduced to Cheng Yu'an's vassal. She could make up her own mind.

…………

"Old Father" finally launched on November 11rd!

The opening conference will be held in the lecture hall of the Academy of Film.

The starring role of "Old Father" was so simple that even the rostrum was dissatisfied, and finally the leaders of the academy and Qingying Studio sat on it to fill up the table.

Even though it was Saturday, the entire lecture hall was packed with teachers, students and reporters who came to watch the press conference.

First, Zhang Huijun, the president of the Academy of Film, gave a speech. He praised Cheng Yu'an's contribution to the academy and expressed his great love for "Old Father":
"The film "Old Father" is a masterpiece jointly created by the Academy and the Youth Film Studio in conjunction with remote film and television."

That's right, Cheng Yu'an has joined his alma mater to make money together.

"Although the film investment is not large," President Liu can't close his eyes and brag, "but its type is very rare in China. It focuses on the elderly living alone, and tells the relationship between the elderly living alone, their children and society, which has a very important reality. significance."

After all, he is the principal, and he speaks well.

The reporter threw the question to Jiao Huang: "Mr. Jiao Huang, you haven't acted in a long time, why did you take on the movie "Old Father"?"

"The most important thing is that the script is good and the characters are good. I have never seen any young director who has such a deep observation of the elderly group as Director Xiao Cheng. Later, I also heard from the coordinator of the crew that Director Xiao Cheng In order to perfect the script, I spend time every day in nursing homes and hospitals to observe the elderly, and there are not many directors who can experience life now.”

Don't think that only actors need to experience life, directors and screenwriters also need it.

It's just that the production is getting faster and faster now, and only a very small number of screenwriters and directors experience life before creating.

Even Cheng Yu'an only took time to observe, and couldn't stay in the nursing home for ten days and half a month.

"Teacher Jiang Wenli, I heard that you didn't ask for any salary for this movie, did you?"

The heroine Zhang Ailian gave it to Jiang Wenli, Cheng Yu'an's elder sister.

"The money was indeed confiscated." Jiang Wenli said.

"Let me talk about it." Cheng Yu'an took the words, "At first I told my senior sister that you should charge a little, otherwise you will not look good, and I don't know if I squeezed the actors. The senior sister said that the crew didn't have much budget. Save a little is a little."

Jiang Wenli said with a smile: "If I play a supporting role, I'll just help out. What kind of money do I get? Besides, I'm lucky to be able to act in such a good script, and I'm willing to do it without money."

When an actress reaches Jiang Wenli's age, it is really difficult to take on the role.

The heroine of a movie basically has no role for her, and she can only act as a mother for others in TV dramas.

Zhang Ailian is almost the best role she can receive in the film market so far.

The reporter noticed Tong Liya sitting next to Jiang Wenli and asked her what role she played in the movie.

She replied that she was playing a nurse.

The nurse does not have a specific name in the movie, and the actor is called Xiaotong.

There was fierce competition within the company because of the supporting role of the nurse. Cheng Yu'an's literary and artistic films, the last time he could go to the three majors for a tour, no fool would want to act.

In the end, Cheng Yu'an personally appointed Tong Liya to play the role, and this little dispute came to an end.

Tong Liya had previously received news from her agent that the company planned to promote her as Yang Mi and Tangtang left next year.

She has accumulated a good audience relationship in the field of TV dramas in the past few years, and it's time for her to make a breakthrough on the big screen.

You said Liu Shishi?
She doesn't need to be praised, Cai Yinong has nothing to do with her, except for promising her at least one female lead drama every year, now he doesn't want to bother with her.
