Huayu, my wife, I support myself

as an actor.

What are the required capabilities?
In addition to the most basic acting skills, there are actually many more.

And the most important ability, in Lu Chen's opinion, is undoubtedly the ability to "take on the show".

The so-called "acting" ability, to put it bluntly, means that someone wants to invite you to act in a movie, and you go through various evaluations to determine whether you should accept the movie.

There are many factors involved, such as whether the role matches you?

Can you play this role well?
What will happen to the market after the film is released?

How will it affect your career?
Do the shooting schedules conflict?
If it conflicts with your other projects,

Which one should I push?
Or which one is delayed?
and many more.

Of course, no matter how good an actor is, there will be cases of misreading, and sometimes he will miss some roles or movies that could have been a big hit.

There are also those who refuse to pursue something different from their own pursuits, not because they are "missing eyes".

for example.

Will - The Matrix

In the 90s, the well-known Shi Huangwei became famous for movies such as the "Men in Black" series and "Independence Day".

At that time, Warner Bros. was preparing to shoot "The Matrix". Since Emperor Shi's image in "Men in Black" was very good, he was invited to star in this movie.

However, Emperor Shi refused. At that time, apart from "The Matrix",
There was another film, "Wild Wild," which he chose in the end.

According to him, the reason for rejecting "The Matrix" was that he didn't understand many parts of the script after reading it.

Of course, everyone understands that the meaning of these words is that I feel that there are many places in the script that people cannot understand. If the audience cannot understand, the movie will naturally fail, so I refused.

Finally, the role of NEO in "The Matrix" was played by Reeves.

After the movie was released, it became a big hit, and later two sequels were released, which became a very classic series.

However, the "Wild Storm" starring Shi Huang hit the street. With an investment of 1.7 million U.S. dollars, the final box office was only a little over 2 million. With the addition of other publicity fees, share, etc., the film studio can say that it lost a lot sent.

Although Shi Huang's commercial value was very high at the time, the hit of this movie did have an impact on him. After all, if your commercial film hits the street, you won't have the confidence to ask for such a high salary next time.

Later, Shi Huang was asked what he thought of "The Matrix", and he also said frankly that it is impossible to say that he does not feel regretful at all, and indeed he should not refuse.

However, he also said that after watching Reeves' excellent performance in it, he felt balanced, because he felt that if he was allowed to play the role of NEO, he might not be able to play as well as Keanu. , then the classics may not become classics by then.

I have to say that Emperor Shi's EQ is still very high, and he praised Reeves again invisibly.

Except this one.

There is also Xiao Lizi's "Spider-Man"

Xiao Lizi became a hot Hollywood star because of "Titanic", and Sony just happened to be filming "Spider-Man", so they sent him an invitation.

As a result, Xiao Lizi refused without hesitation, but after the rejection, he recommended Maguire.

In fact, it can be said that Xiao Lizi's rejection of "Spider-Man" is expected, and everyone understands the reason. Xiao Lizi is very picky about the script, because his goal is the statuette.

But for a superhero movie like "Spider-Man", no matter how good the quality is, it is impossible to win the best actor.

In addition, Xiao Lizi and Toby were childhood friends, and the relationship between the two was very strong. However, after Xiao Lizi became famous, Toby's career as an actor was still in a mess. Because he was too bored, Toby even fell into a state of alcoholism.

And the two of them once made a promise when they were young, saying that no matter who gets to be the top in the future, they must never forget the other.

Xiao Li kept his promise and used his contacts to send "Spider-Man" to Toby.

And Toby did not disappoint. The "Spider-Man" trilogy he starred in is still regarded as a classic among the classics even today.

Xiao Lizi and Toby are still hardcore brothers in Hollywood, and the relationship between them is absolutely unshakable.

Xiao Lizi even put off some work in order to praise Toby's daughter's performance at school, and hugged Toby's child every time she went out, just like her own baby.

From a certain point of view, Xiao Lizi "missed" "Spider-Man",
Whether it's for him, Toby or even the audience, it's "missed" very well.

And Amanda's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.

Compared with the above few, Amanda, once one of the four young actresses in Hollywood, is much more miserable.

Because Shi Huang and Xiao Lizi were well-known stars at the time, they had a lot of status, fame, and resources, so even if they missed some big hit roles, even if they had an impact, it would not hurt them.

In layman's terms,

His blood is thick, and after that little damage, he still has more than half of his blood tank.

But it was different for Amanda, whose career was on the decline.

At the beginning, when Marvel was preparing to shoot "Guardians of the Galaxy", they planned to invite Amanda to play the heroine Gamora.

But Amanda declined, for two reasons.

First, she is a Hollywood beauty known for her beauty. To play Gamora, she has to turn herself green, and it takes a long time to make up, which is very troublesome.

Second, after reading the script, she believed that "Guardians of the Galaxy" must hit the market, and the market would not like this kind of movie.

But it turns out that Amanda underestimated Marvel's brand bonus and underestimated the movie "Guardians of the Galaxy".

After the release of "Silver Guardian", it set off a wave of enthusiasm in North America, and the box office reputation was huge. The leading actor Chris was just a small guy before this film, but he became a capital immediately after playing Star Lord favorite.

The heroine Zoe who plays Gamora has become a Hollywood actress with two big IPs in her hands. She has a lot of resources in her hands and her commercial value has greatly increased.

For Amanda, who had a short blood slot, this was her life. Later, because she couldn't get good movies, in order to maintain her popularity, she had to be a "beautiful rural woman" for a while. Find another way.

She herself also made it clear in the interview that she regretted not accepting the film "Guardians of the Galaxy" at the beginning, and she should not miss the role of Gamora.

It can only be said that maybe when she accepted the role of Marvel, the result today would be very different.

Anyone may have the problem of choosing the wrong script.

嗏

Heavenly King and Kung Fu Emperor's vision is not so bad.

That's why they couldn't explain it.

Also, the cast of the two movies are there.

Even if one person has poor vision, it can't be that everyone has poor vision.

Except for Heavenly King and Kung Fu Emperor.

The worst one is undoubtedly David Tong.

This big brother's luck is too bad.

He is included in both films, how to explain?

to be frank.

Lu Chen still likes David Tong very much.

Good acting skills, high emotional intelligence, and nothing messy.

That is to say, he is rarely seen in filming, variety shows and the like.

It can be said that he is one of the few good men in the entertainment industry.

But David Tong did participate in both of these films, especially in "The Picture of Three Residences", he is also one of the protagonists.

Therefore, he was also forced to share some firepower with the two big men above him.

Although I didn't take the initiative to promote "Sanju Tu" and "Detective".

But it was still picked out by the audience.

for a while.

All the firepower was concentrated on him, there was no way.

The blood of Tian Wang and Kung Fu Emperor is so thick that many viewers can't bear to scold them.

I can only pull David Tong, who is ranked second, out and scold him.

David Tong: "..."

But fortunately, David Tong's blood is quite thick.

In addition, Lu Chen and the others concentrated their firepower to step on other people.

So it helped him direct a lot of attention.

no way.

After all, David Tong is one of the three protagonists of "Partner".

If it gets cold here.

What should Lu Chen and the others do?
After this wave, Lu Chen absolutely believed that this guy would definitely not send good card randomly in the future.

The consequence of sending good person cards indiscriminately is easy to trap those who like him.

And myself.

David Tong has a deep understanding of this during this time.

I sent out a good person card by mistake, and was scolded, so I pulled it out for a meeting.

very fair.

After all, you can't just enjoy the benefits without the consequences.

"Isn't he ready?" Zeng Jia was very surprised when he saw Tong Dawei who apologized so quickly and fully prepared: "Since he was ready, why are you apologizing now?"

Lu Chen is very clear about this point: "If it's him personally, it's okay to say, but this issue involves the king of heaven and kung fu superstars, so if he apologizes in advance, he will definitely offend these two, and also offend the same crew. Therefore, even if you want to apologize, you have to wait for the Heavenly King and Kung Fu Emperor to apologize before you can apologize."

"That's right! This time, the Heavenly King and the Kung Fu Emperor made the others miserable."

"I can't help it. The blood of the two is too thick. I guess it's because I thought I could resist it, so I delayed the apology for so long." Lu Chen answered as a matter of course, and it's not the first time for the two to act in a bad movie.

The king will not say anything.

Didn't the "White Snake" before the Kung Fu Emperor just pass?

At that time he could bear it,
This time I think it should be about the same.

and so.

It took a long time.

Fortunately, the two of them reacted extremely quickly.

When the entire network crusade had not been fully formed, he took the initiative to apologize.

After apologizing.

With the status of the two, the audience can only forgive generously again.

no way!
People's status is there, and accumulation is also there.

So, the unlucky one was someone else.

The first to bear the brunt is David Tong and the leader.

The two in front did not apologize, they must not dare to take the lead.

Can't afford to offend.

I can't afford to offend.

So, I can only grit my teeth and stick to it.

After seeing the apology from the two big brothers, David Tong, who had been prepared for a long time, sent the edited apology letter to the Internet without delay.

In addition, Lu Chen and the others helped him divert his attention.

It can be regarded as barely passing this level.

These two films were too much of a killer.

This group of people can be said to have suffered heavy losses.

Walking the red carpet needs to be sorted by coffee position.

Apologies also need to be sorted by coffee position.

If the ones at the top don't apologize, the people behind won't be able to leapfrog.

That's what bullshit.

There are still very few people like Xu Zheng in the entertainment industry
Hee travel notes to understand a wave.

As soon as his apologetic Weibo was posted, it was definitely intended to offend people.

Just look at the fact that Xu Zheng never cooperated with Mango again.

So, even if you obviously want to apologize.

But if you take the initiative or apologize in advance, you will offend people.

Xu Zheng was already at the peak at that time.

So he can afford to offend Mango.

Now the other people in "Sanjutu" and "Detective" obviously can't afford to offend the people behind these two movies.

Therefore, several of them hadn't resisted until it was his turn to apologize.

It has been announced in advance that it will be cool.

Both Lu Chen and Zeng Jia were taken aback.

Haven't made a move yet?
Netizens and viewers did what they wanted to do.

"Forget it, let's do our best to prepare for the release of "The Pianist"."

Zeng Jia nodded slightly.

no way.

This is the first time she feels that netizens are too cute.

……

then.

Just when the Internet was overwhelmingly crusading against major stars.

Jiaxing Media has also started promoting "The Pianist".

This temporarily diverted the attention of many netizens.

Why is it temporary?
Because after "The Pianist" is released, netizens will definitely pull these people out again to whip their corpses.

Lu Chen is very confident about this.

"Lu Chen is going to pick up the leak!"

Not to mention the professionals in the industry, even Tian Wang and his group feel a headache.

This is undoubtedly the most suitable time to pick up the leak.

With their two films for comparison,
As long as the movies released at this time are not bad, the box office will definitely explode.

At that time, they will be stepped on again.

However, this leak is not easy to pick up.

At least few directors in the film industry dare to release it at this time.

the reason is simple.

If you can't pick up the leak, you definitely have to accompany these two.

Well done, the movie sells well.

If it doesn't work, the director's career is completely over.

Therefore, few directors dared to accept this temptation.

Including the national teacher and them.

Neither dare.

Because no one knows how high the audience's expectations are at this time.

It's okay to say that the movie exceeds the audience's expectations.

If it can't be surpassed!
Two words: cool.

If no one dares, it will only be cheaper for Lu Chen.

For an instant.

"The Pianist" became popular all over the Internet.

It can be said that there has never been any movie in China that can cost tens of millions of dollars like "The Pianist", and it has received such high publicity before its release.

I was stunned by this crusade to create momentum.

For a moment, the entire entertainment circle fell silent.

The director circle was also silent.

Lu Chen is too wicked.

It's like the nemesis of directors like them.

Before Lu Chen appeared,

It's easy for them to make money.

Just get a few big names to form a lineup.

Even if the film is bad.

There's nothing wrong with making money.

After Lu Chen appeared, bad movies would no longer make any money.

Especially these two, directly blood loss.

In Lu Chen's opinion.

Bad movies are a normal phenomenon, and bad movies making money are abnormal.

This is also the reason why not many audiences refuted what he said this time.

Because the audience pays too much attention to bad movies.

As a result, the normal phenomenon of bad movies has become an abnormal phenomenon.

Bad movies make money.

On the contrary, there are some good domestic films, and the main creators kneel down and beg to arrange the films.

This is a bit ridiculous.

Sorry but.

Movie theaters don’t have any social moral responsibility. They don’t need to be responsible for the audience’s taste. Making money is the kingly way. If filmmakers do the same, it’s no wonder Huaguo movies don’t suck.

This time, Lu Chen simply told the audience a truth.

They have no right to blame the market.

Because they themselves don't have sharp eyes.

What Lu Chen told them was: scolding bad movies doesn't kill bad movies, on the contrary, it encourages bad movies.

The main battlefield that can really kill bad movies is not on the Internet or in movie theaters.

but them.

How much box office can a movie have.

It's up to the audience to say it.

To put it simply, if bad movies are not rewarded in movie theaters, the entire movie market will see some changes over time.

Bad movies don't make money.

The director will spend more energy to make a good film.

This time Lu Chen can be said to have earned enough of the limelight.

The publicity effect exploded immediately.

No one dared to enter this schedule, and the attention of this schedule was all his.

In addition, the audience really needs a good film to wash their eyes.

and so.

The effect of the publicity was so good that it exploded.

As for playing so big.

Lu Chen didn't think about whether it would end at that time.

Now he is like the national basketball team in his previous life 19 years ago.

Expectations are too high.

Carrying the hopes of too many people.

If you lose, you will definitely spit out Xiang.

There is no doubt about that.

On the contrary, the two big bosses in front were continued to be flogged.

Even if Lu Chen's popularity with the audience is extremely good.

If this wave is not done well, it will also put yourself in a disadvantageous situation.

This is what Zeng Jia is more worried about.

If Lu Chen misses this time.

Lu Chen's name should also be added to the milestone of the bad movie.

He just engraved the names of the two bigwigs on it.

If you also take the initiative to engrave your name on it.

It will definitely be a good story.

Not to mention people in the industry.

Even Lu Chen's fans couldn't help but sweat.

This is a fan group called "Big Brother Lu", and there are many people arguing about "The Pianist" at the moment.

"It feels like playing too big."

"Why, how do I feel that Director Lu's Tianxiu has directly purified the environment of the film industry, which can be said to be a purifier for the film industry. However, although I quite believe in Director Lu, in case Lu Chen's miss this time, Director Lu's reputation will definitely avalanche."

"Ma Dan, I'm so worried."

"Isn't it good to have a high degree of attention?"

Some people are puzzled by this statement.

The people in the group quickly explained: "It's not that high attention is bad, but that Director Lu himself set himself up. The performance of "The Pianist" must break through the limit of the audience's expectations in order to be convincing. .”

There are many people who can see through this.

simply put!
It's just that the fire burned too much, and it was Lu Chen who set the fire himself.

Maybe the fire I set on myself will catch fire.

Playing with fire is risky after all.

"indeed."

"However, I think we may be overly sentimental. Director Lu's strength lies there. After "The Pianist" is released, this fire will only burn on others!"

"That's right, this wave is steady."
