Light and shadow player

Li Yifeng became popular with his idol Xiao Xianrou, earning his first pot of gold and winning the attention of the audience.

He was also lost in the audience's flowers and applause at the beginning, and the screams of the fans made him very happy every time he went.

Until one day, he received a call from director Guan Hu, asking him to act in his new movie, and he agreed without saying a word.

It is "Old Cannon".

But in the crew, he sensitively felt that the seniors in the crew didn't like him very much.

Of course the staff of the film crew respected him very much. He was talking about director Guan Hu, leading actors Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Hanyu, Liu Muhua and others. Aunt Xu liked him very much.

He didn't know what he did wrong at the beginning, Guan Hu was almost the highest-ranked film director he could receive, and he devoted [-]% of his energy to acting in the crew.

Inadvertently, he heard the conversation between the lighting engineer and the cameraman in the crew:

"I don't know why I asked the two of them (there is also Wu Zhu in the same group) to put on a dead face, the acting skills are so bad, no matter how I shoot it, I can't shoot well."

"Don't say a few words, the director is for the box office. They are the hottest now. If you don't rely on them, could it be possible to rely on us old people to sell the box office? Whether he plays well or not is none of our business. Let's do our own thing." Work, take your share of the money, it has nothing to do with us whether he dies or not."

It's not that Li Yifeng has never heard similar comments, but this time it was particularly harsh.

After becoming popular, he thought he could control everything. After all, wherever he went, everyone bowed to him and spoke politely.

But in fact, he is just a pawn in the director's hand.

Guan Hu used him and Wu's signature purely for the traffic on them, so as to attract fans to buy tickets to enter the arena.

Rather than out of the need for film creation or appreciation of his own business ability.

Not to mention that some senior actors said beautiful words: "Young man is so good-looking, act well", but the faint look of disdain in his eyes deeply hurt Li Yifeng's sensitive nerves.

He asked Wu Zhi, who was in the same group, if there was anything wrong with the crew.

Wu Zhi said that he didn't feel it: "The director said that we passed it, which means we acted very well."

That's right, he has fewer scenes in "Old Paoer" than Li Yifeng, and he leaves by car to participate in activities after filming a few scenes every day.

But Li Yifeng knew that if Wu Zhi and himself went to a remote crew, especially the crew of Cheng Yu'an, Wuershan, and Ning Hao, the director would scold them to death for their acting skills.

They don't even consider using themselves.

Even if you came from a distance, so what, if your acting skills are not up to standard, I won't even use you as a trick.

Otherwise, why didn't Li Yifeng get a role in a play like "The Wandering Earth".

There is absolutely no fool who can become popular like him.

Of course he knew that he couldn't be handsome for a lifetime, and he couldn't be an idol for a lifetime.

Although he debuted as a draft singer, he came from a serious professional class - a graduate of the Sichuan Film and Television Academy.

Coupled with years of long-distance influence, he has basic artistic pursuits.

He wants to transform, and in the past two years when he became popular, he gradually hated the label of "little fresh meat" on himself.

Don't think that popular artists don't know what they are.

Especially for artists with a professional background, whoever did not take the art test out of tens of thousands of people, there is no fool.

It’s just that few people can stay awake and reflect on themselves. Most people will get lost in the flattery and flattery after becoming popular, and really feel that they are good, and they deserve it.

Moreover, after becoming popular, the management will coerce the "self-seeking" of the artist, and the full schedule of making money will not allow you to settle down to polish your acting skills and study the script.

Therefore, Li Yifeng told Yang Mi that he would suspend work for a period of time.

The film contracts in his hands have already been cleared, "Zhu Xian·Qing Yun Zhi" and "Sparrow" have been finalized, and in terms of movies, after "Old Paoer", he hasn't set his sights on any scripts that he particularly wants to act in.

Yang Mi also felt that Li Yifeng's schedule in the past two years was too full, and he was too tense.

"Okay, it's okay to rest for a while." Yang Mi remembered what Liu Yifei said to her when he was in the United States, and he felt ruthless, "I will stop after filming "Three Lives III" next year, let's find a place for vacation , have fun."

Yang Mi's schedule for the first half of next year is already full, and "Three Lives III" will start after the next year, and it will finish in the first half of the year.

Li Yifeng glanced at Yang Mi gratefully, and thanked him.

"Thank you and see you later."

The two stayed tenderly in the private villa for a while, and then left one after another to rush to the premiere scene of "Popping Star".

"Popping Star" tells the sweet and sadistic love story between a small agent and a big star, which can be said to satisfy countless "girls' dreams". Present in full.

Talking about "a girl's dream", Yang Mi said that she "wasn't a girl at all when I was a child", but Li Yifeng said clearly: "A girl's dream is to have someone who can love her and protect her, take care of her, cherish her, and give her happiness. Happiness." When it comes to "boy dream", Li Yifeng said, "I just hope that there is a girl who can rely on him, rely on him".

The media in the audience noticed that when Li Yifeng said this, Yang Mi on the side looked at him very strangely, that tenderness was like water, and that sweetness was overwhelming.

If it is Yang Mi's acting, if her acting skills are so good, why would she be scolded in recent years?

The media exchanged in low voices: "If they are all right, I will chop off their heads for you."

"The whole world knows that they have an affair, but they just don't admit it and keep it public. What can you do with him?"

"Popping Star" is known as the first urban romance film that presents the variety and variety of the entertainment industry, and its performance on the first day was also relatively impressive, becoming the box office champion of the day with a score of 3200 million.

3200 million is not much, but "Pounding Star" is an urban romance film, and such an opening film is acceptable.

But to be on the safe side, Huanrui is still planning to speculate on the relationship between the two.

The investment of this film exceeds 8000 million, and the total box office is less than 3 million, so it can't make any money.

In addition, there will be "falling from the sky" later, the lineup of this film should not be underestimated: Chen Xuedong and Zhang Yixing lead, Zhang Ziyi produces, Guo Jingming supervises, and Chen Zhengdao is the artistic director.

Always be careful.

As a result of the audience voting with their feet, "From the Sky" received 1200 million on the first day, while "Popping Star" still secured the single-day box office champion on that day, reporting 2100 million.

But everyone knows that the movies in the first half of the month are all small-scale dramas, and they have to watch famous directors and blockbuster movies in the second half of the month for the Lunar New Year holiday.

This year, Remote will use six films to block the entire Lunar New Year archives back and forth. It depends on how other companies break through under Remote.

But Cheng Yu'an and the people in the remote production, marketing and distribution department had a difficult time.

Such an arrangement is too unscientific.

In two and a half months, six movies were stuffed in, and they were all commercial blockbusters. No matter how the movies were arranged, they had to fight themselves.

"We can't do this next year." Jiang Xuerou said.

"We don't want to line up like this, but all the production teams want to squeeze out the Lunar New Year slots, and they will fight if they want to change the slots." The marketing department also has its own difficulties, and the crew is all uncles.

Cheng Yu'an looked at the film schedule: "In the past two years, I have pressed too many blockbusters in my hands. This year, it is okay to let them go together. Later, the film schedule should be done well, and the main blockbusters should be fully spaced, so that the filming will make people laugh."

"Other companies don't know how much they envy us. There are so many films," Guo Fei laughed.

"This year first," Cheng Yu'an finally said, "Next year's film list will be released quickly. Okay, that's it, let's end the meeting."

The participants packed their things and went out one after another, and Cheng Yuan also planned to leave.

"Yu'an, wait a moment." Chen Zhixi called him to stop.

"I have something to do over there."

"It's okay, just 2 minutes."
