Actor: I am drawing skills in movies

Chapter 116 Winning an award and being a soft-hearted actress!
Lin Ruxue wanted to invest in "Manslaughter", of course Lin Shu was happy.

Not because the movie made money.

The main reason is that the company has invested money in the film, which is equivalent to the company's participation in disguise.

If something unpleasant happened between him and the crew, it would be better for the company to come forward.

Of course, it would be best if this kind of thing didn't happen.

In the next week or so, Lin Shu hardly went to the company again.

Most of his time, he is doing two things, practicing calligraphy and fingerstyle.

In terms of calligraphy, after more than 20 days of continuous writing, it is almost as good as a professional calligraphy enthusiast.

It is a bit difficult to think about going further.

But later on, he could clearly feel that after writing for several days, he still didn't make much progress.

But he didn't just give up.

The art of calligraphy, like martial arts, requires constant practice.

Maybe one day, we will be able to change from quantitative to qualitative.

As for fingerstyle.

The level is roughly the same as that of an amateur, and there is still a big gap from a real fingerstyle master.

From fingerstyle to now, he has spent less than ten days on practice.

Lin Shu is quite satisfied with being so proficient.

It is worth mentioning that the "cross-age" investment has also been negotiated.

The total investment in "Manslaughter" is 2.5 million, and the company invested 5000 million, accounting for [-]% of the box office share.

It may seem unreasonable, but it is actually not much.

Film income first pays 3.3% business tax and 5% film business special fund.

Excluding these two, the remaining theaters share 57% of the bill, and producers and distributors account for 43%.

The "cross-era" investment belongs to the producer, and can account for [-]%, which is not a small amount strictly speaking.

If "Trans-era" has its own theater chain, it will naturally earn more.

Sadly, not currently!

Early March!
Lin Shu took his little assistant Guo Ke and came to the familiar hotel under the reception of the crew.

Why do you say familiar.

Because the last time I filmed "Slaying the Wolf 2", I stayed in this hotel.

Even at the front desk of the hotel, when Lin Shu registered the information, he chatted very enthusiastically about the topic last time.

After a few perfunctory sentences, Lin Shu came to the luxuriously decorated reception room, and handed over his luggage to Guo Ke.

Walking into the room, Ke Wen, who was sitting on the main seat, immediately stood up.

"Lin Shu, sit down first!"

"it is good!"

When Lin Shu sat down on the chair, Ke Wen coughed softly:
"There is a very important actor who doesn't know when to come. The crew will start tomorrow. I discussed it with Director Ke and plan to shoot your plot first. Look..."

As a director for the first time, he is still not used to changing his identity, and he always subconsciously asks the actors for their opinions.

"Of course no problem." Lin Shu blurted out.

"it is good!"

Seeing Lin Shu agreeing, Ke Wen picked up the script on the table.

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to think of something, and said again:

"There is one more thing. The investment in this film is very large. When filming later, Director Chen will help to give some suggestions. You should be able to accept this!"

"can!"

The film "Manslaughter" invested more than [-] million yuan, and the entertainment company behind Ke Wen was naturally worried that he would be responsible for all the films.

Chen Sicheng finished filming "Detective Chinatown 2" last year, and now he is free, so it is understandable for him to come over and watch.

The arrival of Chen Sicheng will only make the filming more stringent, but this is not a bad thing.

The requirements for movies are stricter, and the finished films are more attractive to the audience.

"Well! Nothing else for now, but the "family" in your movie has already got off the plane, and you can get to know each other later, and the cooperation will be more tacit in the future."

"it is good!"

After agreeing, Lin Shu walked to the sofa beside him.

In "Manslaughter", he played Li Weijie, a middle-aged man.

Don't worry about the appearance, the props team will help him get it done.

The only thing to consider is acting.

Li Weijie is an ordinary person with a kind heart and a deep love for his family.

What is different from others is that most of his leisure time is spent watching suspenseful movies.

This is also the biggest reason behind why he can let his family get rid of suspicion.

The overall story of the movie is very simple. The daughter stunned Sucha by mistake and thought she would kill him.

So the mother and daughter buried her in the coffin of the neighbor's house.

After Li Weijie learned the truth, he used his knowledge of the movies he had seen to construct a series of perfect alibi.

At the end of the story, he achieved his goal.

It's just that out of guilt in his heart, his youngest daughter learned to deceive and other reasons, he chose to surrender.

The ending of the story is not deliberate. In fact, at the beginning of the movie, a certain metaphor foreshadowed Li Weijie's final choice.

From this alone, it is enough to see that Chen Sicheng and Ke Wen have put a lot of effort into this adapted movie.

And the choice of movie backgrounds is also very good.

At first, Lin Shu simply thought that Chen Sicheng and Ke Wen were there to pass the trial.

It wasn't until I watched some legal videos some time ago that I realized it was more than that.

If the movie puts Huaxia aside, in the words of teacher "Zhang San".

A mother and a daughter beat a strong gangster to death, which is called self-defense in criminal law theory.

It's manslaughter at worst.

If this is the case, Li Weijie helped his family to hide it, and the explanation is a bit far-fetched.

But in Siam, this approach can be justified.

Soon!

Other actors came to the reception room one after another.

In the movie, an actress named Tan Zhu plays Li Weijie's wife.

She has worked as an announcer, host, and reporter.

After discovering that as an actor, she can go to different places to film and use her job as a tourist, she gradually transformed into an actor.

Although she became a monk halfway, her acting skills are not bad, even compared with her professional background, she is not far behind.

As for the one who came in with her, there was also a cute-looking little girl with big eyes who looked about five or six years old.

Her name is Zhang Xiran, and she plays An An in the movie, who is Li Weijie's youngest daughter.

The little girl looked at the reception room curiously, not feeling unaccustomed to the strange environment at all.

Walking to Lin Shu, she covered her mouth and exclaimed, "You are the brother in the suit, I like you very much!"

"Thank you!" Lin Shu smiled and waved.

"Are you playing my dad in the movie?"

"Yes!"

Maybe a good-looking and well-behaved child can attract inexplicable affection.

Lin Shu answered her questions with a smile on his face all the time, and he spoke softly.

"Then can you put on a suit and take a photo with me." The little girl continued.

"Why do you want me to put on a suit!" Lin Shu asked with a smile.

"Because mom said you look better in a suit, um... I think so too!"

The little girl's childish words made the woman standing behind her face a little embarrassed.

After exchanging glances with her, Lin Shu rubbed the little girl's head: "The film crew will have a kick-off banquet tonight, and then I'll wear a suit and take a photo with you, okay?"

"Row!"

The little girl nodded emphatically, and her eyes were more cute when she bent her eyes.

After a brief chat with the little girl, Lin Shu and Tan Zhu also said hello.

Through chatting, he found that Tanzhu's personality is more outgoing and not a difficult person to get along with.

Lin Shu also heaved a sigh of relief after getting to know the two co-actors well.

Around seven at night!

After receiving the message from Ke Wen, Lin Shu changed into a suit and walked towards the hall downstairs.

After all, it was agreed with the little girl Zhang Xiran, and some domestic media were also invited to the opening banquet, so it needs to be more formal.

Just as he stepped out of the elevator, some reporters who were already seated rushed towards him.

"Mr. Lin Shu, may I ask why you accepted this movie!"

"I heard that Director Ke took the initiative to invite you to play the leading role. Is this true?"

"Did you like this movie because this character is as eye-catching as "Gao Jin"?"

……

Lin Shu was not used to being questioned by so many reporters all of a sudden.

But their behavior is also understandable.

Lin Shu was really popular during this time, and until now, she has not been interviewed publicly.

"Well... After the banquet is over, I will answer your questions, and everyone should sit down and eat."

Getting out from among the reporters, Lin Shu nodded to Ke Wen who was sitting at the main table, and then sat down beside him.

"Brother!" came a soft voice.

On the table next to her, little aunt Zhang Xiran pouted and looked at Lin Shu eagerly.

Noticing her gaze, Lin Shu immediately understood what she meant.

After greeting several investors at the main table, he walked up to the little girl.

"Mom comes too!"

"it is good!"

After taking a few photos with the little girl, Lin Shu stood up slowly.

Just when he was about to return to the main table, the little girl suddenly said something that surprised him.

"Yeah! The shot is really good, it seems like a real family!"

"Little girl, does your father know what you say?"

After silently complaining in his heart, Lin Shu returned to the main table with a strange expression.

There are a total of twelve seats at the main table. In addition to Lin Shu, Ke Wen and Tan Zhuo, there are seven other men and women in different costumes.

One of them, Lin Shu, is quite familiar with him. It is Chen Yaoming who helped him upgrade the contract before!
Chen Yaoming appeared on the table, and the identities of the other people were basically not difficult to guess. There was a high probability that they were representatives sent by major investment companies.

The subsequent mutual introduction also confirmed his guess.

Looking at the still vacant seat, he leaned against Ke Wen and asked softly, "Director Ke, is there anyone else who hasn't arrived yet?"

Ke Wen glanced at the others, and explained in a low voice in Lin Shu's ear: "It's reserved for Director Chen and Sister Chen Chen, but they ate on the plane, so we don't have to wait."

"Row!"

Seeing that everyone was almost here, Ke Wen stood up holding a wine glass:
"Thank you for coming to the opening banquet of "Manslaughter" in spite of your busy schedule. I hope that you will have a happy cooperation in the subsequent filming cycle!"

"My friends from the media, eat and drink well!"

Fall down!
Everyone stood up holding their glasses.

Even Zhang Xiran, who was biting a big elbow, raised the juice with his small hand.

"Lin Shu, I offer you a toast!"

Just as he sat down, Chen Yaoming on the opposite side immediately filled his glass.

"Okay, but tomorrow I'm filming, I..."

"It's okay, I understand, you can do whatever you want!"

After nodding, the two happily clinked glasses on the table.

"Come on, let me toast to Mr. Chen. You have found a treasure in "Cross-Era". An actor with such good acting skills as Lin Shu can be discovered by you."

"It's a fluke, it's all due to Mr. Lin's good guidance!"

"Director Ke, I wish you a big hit at the box office!"

……

Everyone scrambled to praise, and the overall atmosphere of the banquet was very harmonious.

An hour passed.

Ke Wen walked to the stage with a group of leading actors, ready to be interviewed by reporters.

Under the stage, a reporter with headlines and entertainment asked with a microphone:

"Director Ke, I heard that you contacted Lin Shu for this film. What is the reason that you finally chose him among so many actors?"

"Well... I said it's not because of his fame, you guys definitely don't believe me." Ke Wen glanced at Lin Shu and smiled mysteriously: "But when the movie is released, Lin Shu's acting skills will definitely surprise you. "

After returning to the headline reporter's question, Ke Wen immediately clicked on another one.

"Director Ke, I want to ask Mr. Lin Shu a question!"

Hearing this, Ke Wen immediately handed over the microphone to Lin Shu.

"Mr. Lin Shu, what do you think of the current film and television environment!"

"I don't have any ideas, all I can do is play my own role well and be worthy of the audience, that's all!"

"Okay, based on the previous news from the crew, the fans think you are very dedicated, and hope you can take care of your body. Regarding this, what do you want to say to the fans?"

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Shu said in a deep voice, "I have nothing to say."

"Why do you..."

The reporter looked at Lin Shu puzzled.

At this time, shouldn't I just agree to it, and promise fans that I will take good care of my body?
Not playing cards according to common sense?

"As an actor, shouldn't you be dedicated to filming?

I'm paid millions of dollars, if I can't even do the most basic things as an actor, why would I still be filming.

I suggest to those fans who care about my body, if you have this time, why not take good care of your family. "

Lin Shu didn't understand.

Fans don't care about his family's health, but come to care about him, a second-tier star.

Are the workers on the construction site not working hard?
Are the sanitation workers on the road hard on hot days?
Besides, compared with what I have gained, the hard work of filming is nothing.

Fall down!
There was a burst of thunderous applause throughout the hall.

After the applause gradually subsided, a voice full of spirit sounded out.

"well said!"

At the door, a capable-looking middle-aged woman with short hair walked in first from outside the hotel.

On her left is a girl whose eyes are [-]% similar to hers, and on the other side is Chen Sicheng, the producer of "Manslaughter".

The woman who spoke was none other than La Yun's actor——Chen Dan!
Chen Ting is very famous in the movie.

Since her debut, she has won countless awards at film festivals. Because of her high achievements, the film organizing committee directly designated her as a lifelong judge.

Just now when the reporter was asking questions, she happened to walk in with her daughter and Chen Sicheng.

But she didn't say anything, but stood silently at the door and waited.

She wanted to see how Lin Shu, a new actor who had recently become famous, would answer the reporter's questions.

Originally, she thought that Lin Shu would take care of the fans' emotions and say some scene words.

result……

When he came to the stage, Chen Chen patted Lin Shu's shoulder appreciatively: "Very good, I hope you can persevere."

"I will!"

Chen Chen's attitude surprised Lin Shu.

Who is Chen Chen!
That's the second best actress after the international chapter in terms of awards.

How can he calm down when he can be praised by such a senior actor.

After a while of uproar, the media turned their attention to Chen Chen.

"Sister Chen, you acted as the second female lead in this movie. What is the reason why you are willing to act as a supporting role for others!"

"No reason, I just think I like the role of La Yun more!"

"It seems that you admire Lin Shu very much, what do you think of his acting skills!"

"I've watched Gao Jin played by Lin Shu, the acting is great!"

"Is your daughter influenced by you when she joined "Manslaughter" this time?"
