Light and shadow player

Chapter 85 Wang Changtian

Let's turn the time back to September.

The 24th Golden Rooster Awards opened in Yinchuan.

The shortlist includes "The Eraser in My Mind," which has three nominations: Best Feature Film, Best Actress and Best Graphic Design.

Cheng Yu'an's "Butterfly Effect" and "Warm and Containing Light" are still missing.

At this time, Cheng Yu'an had returned from Venice.

Guan Jingpeng couldn't shake the face of the Golden Rooster Award like Cheng Yu'an did. He took the crew of "The Eraser in My Brain" to Yinchuan.

Although nothing was achieved, at least it showed an attitude.

So far, many ignorant viewers have also seen that the Golden Rooster Award is not for Long-distance, but only for Cheng Yuan.

He was too young and became popular so fast that many people in the circle were caught off guard.

Another important reason is that Cheng Yu'an is not a product of the traditional film training system.

Although he was trained by the film school, he did not follow the studio route.

Among his predecessors, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Tian Zhuangzhuang... which one has no studio experience?

Even Director Feng became popular after working in the Beijing circle for more than ten years. Just because of this, the mainstream film circle still doesn't accept him.

But Cheng Yu'an is different. He has no experience in a studio, and he doesn't mix in the so-called Northwest, Beijing, and Shanghai circles. As soon as he graduates, he starts his own company and makes money.

The last group of directors who broke through this system was called the sixth generation directors, and they are still making underground films.

Cheng Yu'an, the youngest and best director in Venice, didn't care about it.

When he came back from Venice, his heart swelled: I am already the best director in Venice, so I still need your award?

Cheng Yuan kept telling herself in her heart: "Don't float, don't float, don't float."

But he can't control it!

When everyone around you is complimenting you, people's ability to introspect will be infinitely weakened.

So Cheng Yu'an, who noticed the problem, plunged into the later stage of "Animal World"!
Now all the remote projects have finished filming. "Lotus Lantern" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" were completed in June, "No. 6 Under Heaven" in July, and "Animal World" is in the later stage.

The post-production of three TV series and one movie is enough to be busy up and down remotely, so Cheng Lingfeng didn't start any new projects, but invested in some film and television dramas here and there.

The biggest news in the entertainment industry in October was the launch of Zhang Jizhong's "Sculpture of God".

This film has been hyped by Zhang Jizhong for more than a year, and the industry said that "The Legend of Condor Heroes" he hyped is boring.

From July last year to October this year, after a 7-month preparation period, "The Legend of Condor Heroes" finally started in Jiuzhaigou.

At the opening press conference, a blind-eyed reporter asked Zhang Jizhong: "Why didn't director Cheng Yu'an attend this press conference? Didn't you say that he will be the producer of this drama?"

Zhang Jizhong explained: "We have negotiated with Remote, but due to various reasons, the two sides did not reach an agreement in the final stage. We are very sorry."

But Cheng Lingfeng didn't have time to talk to Zhang Jizhong, and only replied through the reporter: "There should be a bottom line for hype, you can't just gossiping with anyone who is famous. I also said that the next movie of Yuanyuan will invite director Zhang Yimou to shoot it."

Zhang Jizhong stopped responding after this, and concentrated on filming in Jiuzhaigou.

Long-distance Media is staring at the later stage of several projects, and Cheng Yu'an is receiving the bright boss Wang Changtian.

After returning from Venice, Cheng Yu'an immediately became a favorite.

Bernard's Mr. Yu, Pony's Brother Gou and even Huayi's Mr. Wang all asked to see him.

Cheng Yu'an took time out of his busy schedule, and today he made an appointment to have a meal with the glamorous President Wang.

Bright Media was established very early, initially doing entertainment reports and offline activities.

These two bright works were very successful. Until this year, Wang Changtian established Guangxian Films and officially entered the production and distribution of film and television.

Wang Changtian has a gentle appearance and a refined temperament. At first glance, one would think he is a scholar.

"Director Cheng, it's really hard to see you." Wang Changtian saw Cheng Yu'an coming in, took his hand, and pulled him to sit opposite him.

"Mr. Wang's place is really hard to find." This is a private restaurant, if Wang Changtian's secretary hadn't come to pick him up in person, he really couldn't find this place.

"Although this place is small, the dishes are excellent. Knowing that Director Cheng doesn't like noise, he chose this place specially. I also don't like to eat in big restaurants outside. It's too noisy, and I can't even eat a meal.

"Director Cheng, come here." Wang Changtian handed the menu to Cheng Yu'an.

"I won't order. The guests can do whatever they want. I can eat whatever Mr. Wang arranges."

"Hahaha, refreshing." Wang Changtian smiled, and didn't order food when he was done, he just told the waiter to serve the food as usual.

"It seems that Wang is always a regular visitor here."

"Hey, I'm under a lot of work pressure, and this is just my hobby. My family members often scolded me, saying that if I eat like this, I won't be able to bear it when I get old. Isn't that an old saying that people can't get along with each other without addictions. If you don’t have hobbies, then life is so boring.”

Wang Changtian is a rare sexual lover in the circle, and the other is Xiao Ma's dog brother.

Cheng Yuan had a good first impression of him.

"Did Cheng Dao get married?" Wang Changtian started talking to Cheng Yu.

"Not yet, I'm so busy looking around, I don't have time to look for it." Cheng Yu'an laughed.

"Men should start a family early and stabilize the rear, so that they can move forward without distraction." Professor Wang Changtian has experience from others.

Before serving the dishes, the two chatted all over the world.

Wang Changtian was born as a journalist. He has traveled far and wide, and has seen the world. When chatting with him, he doesn't have to worry about falling off the topic.

After chatting for a few minutes, the two began to call each other brother and brother.

"Brother, you guys have completely gained a firm foothold this time. In just two years, you have won more than 2 million at the box office. I heard that several TV dramas and various satellite TVs are scrambling to buy them. You are young and promising." Wang Changtian picked up food for Cheng Yu'an.

"It's all luck," Cheng Yu'an said while eating, "I'm afraid now when I think about it. I didn't know anything at the time, and I dared to shoot when I got the money. I didn't think about what would happen if I smashed my hand."

"Luck is also a part of strength. Why haven't I seen others have this luck? Is the best director in Venice also luck?" Wang Changtian said.

"It's really hard to say. I asked Marco Muller later. When voting for the best director, the judges were more optimistic about Kim Ki-duk's "Empty Room". Best director to me."

"So, in the end, my brother, you won the best director." Wang Changtian said, "Come on, this is a toast to you, the 22-year-old best director, don't even think about it, it's for our domestic film. One breath."

The two had a drink, and Wang Changtian continued: "Recently, we are going to expand our film business, what advice does my brother have?"

"A good thing." Cheng Yu'an said, "The competition in the industry is fierce, and the audience will always benefit, and the more films you can choose."

Cheng Yu'an didn't answer the words, he just talked about the car, he knew that Wang Changtian came to seek cooperation, but the business was business.

"I don't know if Brother Cheng has any projects in his hands. Let's cooperate together. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you suffer." Wang Changtian said directly.

"But the company's projects this year are already saturated, and I don't have any movies for next year."

"Don't be in a hurry, how can you rush to make a movie for a year or two, my brother is not a person who doesn't know how to do it." Guangxian Films is like starting from scratch, and now there is only a basic framework.

The production and distribution channels are not perfect, even if it cooperates with Guangxian, Wang Changtian may not be able to afford it.

This time I came here to build a good relationship with Yuan Yuan.Wang Changtian could see that Cheng Yu'an had a good impression of him and left a good impression, so the meal was not in vain.

After a meal, the guests and the host had a good time, and they ate until 10 o'clock in the evening.

Before leaving, Wang Changtian also invited Cheng Yu'an: "Come over to eat at home if you have time, and try your sister-in-law's cooking."

"They're all in the capital, so I'll definitely visit them when I have time." Cheng Yu'an agreed.

　I want to create a group later, will you join?
