Light and shadow player

Chapter 69
"The first snow in 2002 came later than before..."

"I said you can't change the song!" Cheng Yu'an scolded Qin Ranqiu.

Dao Lang was born this year, and it became a huge hit!
"What to change, I think it sounds good." Qin Ranqiu played it from the beginning again.

"It sounds so good, but I can't stand to listen to it [-] times a day!"

I don’t know where Qin Ranqiu got the disc. I played the single "The First Snow in 2002" all day long. It has been playing for more than a week, and every day is "your red lips stick to my everything." .

It's fine if he's the only one doing this, but the problem is that seven out of ten male staff members in the whole crew are listening to Dao Lang.

Girls are listening to "36 Strategies of Love".

Can you imagine Cheng Yu'an's feelings these days.

The left ear is "the No. [-] car parked on the eighth floor", and the right ear is "who said that beautiful girls have no brains, they only know how to love beauty and giggle".

"If one day you have a nervous breakdown, I'll pull you to die together." Cheng Yu'an scolded Qin Ranqiu.

Since the last night of drinking and talking with Qin Ranqiu, this kid seems to be a different person. He is full of energy, and he is also energetic in working on the set.

I don't know if the matter of his friend has been resolved.

When the time came to early April, news came from Shanghai that "The Eraser in My Brain" was finished!
Cheng Yu'an flew to Shanghai to attend the wrap-up banquet of "Eraser".

After all, it still bears the name of producer.

"Director Guan, congratulations on the finish, congratulations on the finish!" Cheng Yu'an congratulated Guan Jingpeng.

"It's thanks to Dao Cheng's good script, and the staff of Dao Cheng's company are also very good, so it can be completed so quickly." Guan Jingpeng said.

"In the later stage, I have to work hard to guide."

"Should be."

The two had a drink.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu'an saw Brother Hu at the wrap-up banquet of "The Eraser in My Brain".

"Hello, Director Cheng." Brother Hu took the initiative to greet Cheng Yu'an.

"Why don't you come here from the "Sword" crew?" Cheng Yu'an asked.

"I played a guest role in "Eraser", the beggar who borrowed a lighter at the train station." Brother Hu said.

"How is it? Are you still used to it?" Cheng Yu'an patted Brother Hu on the shoulder maturely.

"It's okay! I really like the atmosphere of the crew."

"Yu'an." Yang Xue came over to say hello.

Seeing Yang Xue coming over, Guan Jingpeng praised: "Director Cheng, you've chosen a good actor, Ah Xue's eyes are so dramatic."

Yang Xue said: "Director Guan has won the award."

Cheng Yu'an's younger sister from Yangxue's 99 acting department, but she is 4 years older than him, and they had a relationship when they were in school.

"What's going on behind you?" Cheng Yu'an asked Yang Xue.

"There is a "Dragon Ball of the Demon World" filming in Hebei Province, and I will play a supporting role, and I will fly there tomorrow."

Cheng Yu'an remembered that Yang Xue would be filming "Little Fish and Flowers" this year, and it's already April. Has Yang Xue not gotten the role of Jiang Yuyan yet?
Could it be that he was slapped by his own butterfly?

Let's see later, but even without Jiang Yuyan, I gave Yang Xue a heroine in a movie, which is enough to make up for it.

After finishing the wrap-up banquet of "Eraser", Cheng Yu'an rushed back to the Northeast the next afternoon to continue filming "Warm and Containing Light".

Most of the movie has been filmed, and some actors have left the crew.

There were only two big news worth reporting in the entertainment industry in April.

One is that Feng Xiaogang's "A World Without Thieves" has finally started filming in Lanzhou; the second news is just a coincidence that Cheng Yu'an's "Warm and Contained Light" was filmed in Northeast China on the third day after "A World Without Thieves" started.

Cheng Yu'an and his group returned to Beijing in a low-key manner, and didn't even hold a press conference.

The drama "Warm and Containing Light" doesn't get much attention. If it weren't for the fact that the director is Cheng Yu'an and the heroine is Zhou Gongzi, not many reporters would be willing to come to the icy and snowy Northeast.

This movie has been clearly stated remotely that it is a literary film for awards.

Since "Hero", the market has paid more attention to large-scale commercial films, and much less attention to literary films.

Didn't you see "The Promise", which director Chen Kaige has held back for two years, was launched last month?

Looking at the lineup, the photography is Bao Dexi from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and the action design is Lin Di'an, the action designer of "The Matrix" and "Spiderman". Stars from China, Japan and South Korea joined in.

A palace was built in Hengdian!
Zhang Bozhi's clothes cost 30 yuan!
The Chinese version of "The Lord of the Rings"!
Gimmick.

This side of "The Promise" is still being filmed, and the outside world is already guessing about the box office of "The Promise".

Some said 1 million, some said 2 million, and some directly said 3 million to break the 2.5 million box office record of "Hero".

Cheng Lingfeng was very envious of the news in the newspaper, and said to Cheng Yu'an: "Let's make a blockbuster movie too! It's the kind of blockbuster movie with an investment of 8000 to [-] million yuan and a box office of [-] to [-] million yuan."

"Is it because you didn't wake up or think highly of me?" Cheng Yu'an laughed.

"Let's not talk about whether our company can afford such a big production. It's just me as a director. Who do you think will invest such a large sum of money for me? Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are both decades-old directors. They can attract Tens of millions or hundreds of millions of investment. Do you think I can do it too?"

Cheng Yu'an has a good idea of ​​his current position in the market.

It's okay to pry an investment of two to 3000 million yuan, but once the cost exceeds 5000 million yuan, the word "Cheng Yu'an" will not be so easy to use.

We need to make a few more films to combine ourselves with the long-distance brand, so as to win the trust of investors.

Only then can we talk about making a blockbuster movie.

"What you said is also reasonable. We still have to make our long-distance brand bigger and stronger." Cheng Lingfeng said just like that, knowing that long-distance's current scale cannot make blockbuster movies.

"How's "Super Girl" going?" Cheng Yu'an is very concerned about this project, and it will be the company's cash cow when it's done.

"I have already negotiated with Beijing Satellite TV and Haidie Music. Auditions will start in various places on May 9st. The finals will be held before school starts in September."

……

The domestic schedule in April is very cold, and Wu Yusen's "Memory Rift" is slightly worth watching.

Actor Ben Affleck, later he will star in the famous "Escape from Tehran", "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and "Gone Girl".

However, the response to this film was mediocre, and Wu Yusen was a little reluctant to make progress after being promoted to the altar.

"Memory Rift" actually released pigeons!
How much he loves pigeons!

If Cheng Yu'an remembers correctly, "Memory Rift" is Wu Yusen's last movie in Hollywood.

He rose to prominence with "Face Changing" and "Mission: Impossible 2," and was almost out of Hollywood for screwing up "Wind Talker" and nearly killing MGM.

This "Memory Rift" is a project of Paramount. The other party took a fancy to his achievements in "Face Changing" and "Mission: Impossible 2" and handed over the film to him.

As a result, the film's performance in North America was weak, with only 5300 million US dollars, and he announced his retirement in Hollywood in advance.

In the end, I had no choice but to return to the Chinese-speaking market for the elderly.

Cheng Yu'an went to the cinema to watch "Memory Rift" and thought it was mediocre. It's definitely not a bad movie, but it's just a passable popcorn movie.

But if you want to rely on this kind of film quality to sell a lot of money, it is a bit overthinking.

　It's so annoying, I'm stuck again, and I'd rather die.
