China Entertainment started from art school

Chapter 132 I Really Have No Gossip
Li Jingkun said with a smile: "This is our international friend, the director of Korea, who is with me, and is also here to participate in the Shanghai International Film Festival today."

The two girls were very surprised, so they went to take a closer look at Kimbella's appearance, and she really looked like a woman from Bangzi Country.

I just didn't expect such a beautiful woman to be a director.

Seeing them looking over, Kimbella smiled and said in Chinese, "Hello."

He spoke Chinese, but the spoken language was a bit strange, so he believed Li Jingkun's words and said, "Hello."

After that, the two didn't bother much, and quickly left with a smile.

"Jing Kun is very famous." Kim Bella said with a smile.

"No, this kind of situation is not common." Because he seldom participates in activities, he will sign more at the film festival.

"Jing Kun also likes acting, right? You have no problem being an actor with your looks."

"Haha, it's the same with you. I thought you were an actress the first time I met you. I never thought you would be a director."

"That won't bother you today, will it? I heard the girl say the word 'date'."

"No, although I am also an actor, I am not an idol. My fans are not interested in whether I have a date or a girlfriend, and it will not affect my acting career."

"Jing Kun is much better than idols."

The term "idol" was passed down from their country, so of course she knew what it meant.

It's just that the status of most idols in their home countries is actually quite low, and may be higher than that of comedians; but there is great respect for screenwriters and directors, and their status is naturally much higher than that of idols.

So hearing Li Jingkun comparing herself with idols, Kim Bella was a little "excited".

The two chatted a lot, mostly in English.

Kim Bella is a screenwriter and director with a master's degree in film production from Columbia University in the United States.Li Jingkun is also very interested in the film production in the United States. After all, he has always belonged to the top existence in the world, so he asked a lot of questions about it.

In the end, Kim Bella also said that she also found a feeling from "Hummingbird", and may write another story about the growth of a girl. "It may be different from your movie, and I will add my own experience to it."

"That's great, you can share it with me when you finish writing it."

"Sure, I will show it to you then, so we can learn from each other."

That night, there were more reports about "Hummingbird". After all, it was the first time to reveal its true face to a small number of people in China.

At present, there are many praises, one is that the quality is really good, and the other is that the crew has said hello.

Of course, there are those who are not interested and dislike, after all, there are so many media coming to the film festival.

However, there is another piece of news, which is more interesting than reporting on "Hummingbird" itself, that is, someone took pictures of the director Li Jingkun going on a date with a beautiful woman alone.

"Li Jingkun, the secret meeting beauty at the Magic Metropolis Film Festival!"

"Real relationship? Famous director Li Jingkun chatting and laughing with strange beauties!"

It is said that she is a strange beauty, but few people really know the identity of Kim Bella.

But in the screening hall, many media reporters have actually inquired about her identity, so it is impossible to say that no one knows—maybe they are the ones who broke the scandal.

Then he deliberately said that she was a strange beauty, just to attract attention.

However, Li Jingkun himself does not need any traffic, let alone this kind of traffic, so he quickly clarified the next day:

"There is no gossip, her name is Kim Bella, the screenwriter and director of Bangziguo, "Hummingbird" was also inspired by her short film "Claret Exam", so I bought the adaptation rights from her last year, so I decided to We got to know each other like this.

Yesterday, "Hummingbird" was screened at the Shanghai International Film Festival, and she was invited to watch it together - it's also strange, is my director's scandal also watched? "

He added the last sentence on purpose, in order to weaken this kind of thing and make everyone feel that it’s no big deal—let’s take a vaccination against any possible romance that might actually happen in the future.

However, it is also possible that there is no need to fight, because he is not an idol.

Even if I have some idol temperament, even if I fall in love later, there should be no fans who will die... right?
In fact, the vast majority of domestic fans are more rational and have independent personalities.Their company also did not shape and promote him in the direction of an idol.

"An explanation is a cover-up, and a cover-up is the truth."

"That's right, there are still so many explanations."

"Do you really think of yourself as a simple director?"

"Congratulations! Li Jingkun is having an affair!"

"It's really rare. It seems that I haven't seen any rumors about him having an affair with a girl before."

"Maybe he doesn't need to help the movie gossip?"

"Brother, you should admit it. If you don't admit it, you will be rumored to come out next time."

Sure enough, his fans didn't show much excitement about his incident. There must be some teasing, but it's not too outrageous.

Li Jingkun read the fan comments for more than half an hour, and when he saw the last question that said "coming out", he replied: "I just saw you talking about it."

Then the fans must have exploded, checking in and commenting on this reply.

"Hahaha, I was directly reprimanded by the blogger himself."

"Extraordinary, Li Jingkun replied to fans, saying that he has not come out!"

"The bib netizen revealed that Li Jingkun came out of the closet, but I angrily denied it!"

"The scarf netizen broke the news, the cutting-edge director Li Jingkun is so good?"

"Shocked! Li Jingkun just admitted it himself..."

There must have been photos of Li Jingkun standing with girls, or with female artists before, but he was rarely photographed with girls in private.

After all, it has become more famous and trafficked in the past two years.

So he really doesn't have any scandals about him, but obviously things will start to change in the future.

After all, the popularity is getting higher and higher, and the media also found that the traffic after reporting this kind of news is not bad.So it is estimated that it will continue to follow up...
A few days later, the awards of the Asian unit were announced first, and Li Jingkun successfully won the "Asian Newcomer Award-Best Director". "Hummingbird" successfully won the third award.

Although it is not in the main competition unit, it is an international category A award after all, and it is the third award for this film, so it is quite media reported.

And as fans of Li Jingkun, they are naturally the happiest group of people.

"Warmly congratulate the male singer Li Jingkun for winning the Best Director Award at the Asian Newcomer Award at the Magic City International Film Festival."

"Congratulations to male writer Li Jingkun for winning the Best Director Award at the Asian Newcomer Awards."

"Congratulations to actor Li Jingkun for winning the Best Director Award."

Well, I don’t know if I thought Li Jingkun won the best director of Ga Na or Oscar.

Of course there will be cynical people, but those are ignored.

"Congratulations, best director! I didn't expect you to get it, it's amazing!"

Many people sent him congratulatory messages, but Liu Tianxian must focus on replying.

"Thank you, it's just for the Asian unit, and it's just a newcomer award."

"That's pretty amazing, even if it's like this, not everyone can get it, right? Besides, this is the third time that "Hummingbird" has won the trophy! Besides, there's more..."

"Haha, I was surprised to get so many awards. Maybe it's luck."

"Don't be too modest, there may be a small part of luck, but you still need to keep up with your strength. So you really have to think of me if you have a chance!"

Many people have said this to him recently, including Da Mimi, and even some screenwriters and directors have chatted a few words. Of course, Li Jingkun said very politely, "There is a chance."

But for Liu Tianxian, he was the one who brought it up.

"Actually, I invited you once before, but you declined."

"I know, it's "Introduction to Architecture", I've seen it, I really like this movie! It's a pity that I missed it in the first place."

"So your focus in recent years is still in the circle of Hong Kong and Taiwan?"

"Well, in fact, there are relatively few people in China who are looking for me, and even fewer are suitable for me."

"No way. In recent years, the domestic film market has been getting better and better, and more and more films have been approved. It shouldn't be difficult to find the one that suits you."

"Don't you know? For some reason, there are fewer people looking for me in China..."

In fact, Liu Tianxian has not been particularly busy in the past two or three years, and at most one or two works will be released in a year, so during the recent period, he has chatted with Li Jingkun several times on and off, and he has become more familiar with it.

So when we talked about this place this time, she also told him some things about herself.

It turned out that in 07, "Kung Fu King", which assembled two great martial arts superstars, wanted to choose an actress. The competition for the two main female roles was very fierce, including Lin Xinru, Li Binbin, Bai Ling, Fan Linfang and so on.

But in the end, Liu Tianxian was chosen to play the role of the heroine "Golden Swallow" under Zhongyi's strong recommendation.

At that time, Liu Tianxian was also in the transition period of her career, and she planned to make her way from the small screen to the big screen, so Zhongyi chose her to play the heroine of "Kung Fu King", which was undoubtedly a big gift for her .

Of course, Zhongyi Company has its own reasons for doing this, and they have paid and lost something for this, in order to be able to sign Liu Tianxian.

Who knew that after she finished filming "Kung Fu King", she turned around and signed another company...
Of course, I don't know if there are man-made rumors about "transgender people" and "pregnancy", etc., but she basically can't get any good resources in several circles in China.

Even TV series resources have been greatly affected, and some conflicts have occurred with the film and television company that she had cooperated with well before.

Therefore, there are basically no good TV series in the future; so it is not certain whether "Ten Years of Covenant" has become yellow because of this reason.

In short, the messy Li Jingkun didn't know much about it.

"So even if there are resources from domestic companies in the future, don't you dare to take them easily? Are you afraid of being cheated or something?"

"I also have concerns about this, and I did sign several film contracts with Hong Kong and Taiwan at that time, so I don't want to be too tired.

Of course, one of the reasons was that I didn't know enough about you at the time.My mother and my team also said that I can't easily make mistakes for the time being, and it will be difficult to take on other projects in the future if my reputation is broken. "

For the movie Liu Tianxian participated in, fans will say afterwards that she has poor vision and did not choose good resources and roles, but this can also be said to be an afterthought.

Because when the project was first announced, most of her fans were very happy. After all, it was a big project with a big director, and with big-name actors, it wouldn't be too bad after all, right?

······
Many things in this world will surprise people when they first happen, but after a long time, they will be taken for granted.

For example, certain feats of big figures, such as the occurrence of certain international events, and some scandals in the entertainment industry, etc.

After "Hummingbird" won three film festival awards, many people were surprised at first, but after a long time, most people took it for granted.So black fans became active again, saying that these are just some small prizes, which doesn't mean anything.

Otherwise, why couldn't the Shanghai International Film Festival even enter the main competition?Can't even attend the closing award ceremony?

However, there is no need to pay too much attention to some noisy voices. Li Jingkun has a lot of things to do, so he doesn't have the time and energy to take care of them.

As the old saying goes, it is enough to speak with the works.

His most recent works are Hummingbird and Positive Physique.The former has not yet reached the release time, but the latter is almost on the line.

Since the short film was sold to Yueshi.com, the website has been promoting it non-stop.

After all, any work needs to be warmed up, and recently the director and starring Li Jingkun also has a topic, so there are still many slogans and gimmicks that can be used for publicity.

The first selling point is that Li Jingkun directs and acts on his own, which is rare.After all, in his previous works, he was at most a cameo or a supporting role.

The second selling point is that this is Li Jingkun's graduation work in Jingying, and it has a good reputation among the teachers and students of the school.

The third selling point is that Li Jingkun gave his first on-screen kiss in the short film, and the object was Gu Xiaona...

Then there are many other hotspots that can be picked up, such as the album "22" and the movie "Hummingbird", etc. It can be said that the publicity department of Yueshi.com is also working very well, because this advertisement is very easy to do, and the traffic and popularity are also high. Pulled up quickly.

"I believe that many people know that my graduation work "Positive Physique" will premiere on Yueshi Online in three days. Everyone is welcome to correct homework online. This time I am the director and the lead actor. The second male is our handsome guy @孙豪, The heroine is our beautiful girl @古小娜."

Li Jingkun, Gu Xiaona, Sun Hao and others naturally also cooperated in publicity. In addition to recording some promotional videos on Yueshi.com, they also posted some advertisements, tidbits and introductions on Bibo, and then responded and interacted with netizens.

"I've known it a while ago. It's self-written, directed and acted. I've been planning to watch it for a long time."

"Semi-autobiographical graduation short film, the protagonist in it is also a student of the director department of the Film Academy!"

"I just want to know one thing. Yueshi.com said that this is Li Jingkun and Gu Xiaona's first on-screen kiss. I want to know if it's true or if it's just a lie! Switched off!"

"Hey, you have also become the kind of person you hated before. You actually used your first on-screen kiss to promote it. It's too despicable, and the date is still Gu Xiaona. I'm so angry!"

"Li Jingkun has finally attacked his own artists, you hateful capitalist!"

"666, self-written, directed and acted, you can design any plot you want, right?"

"Please remove the word 'ba'."

"As Li Jingkun's younger sister, I have seen it in the standard screening hall of the school before. It was shown as one of the excellent graduation works. To be fair, it is very good-looking. I personally like it very much! Both love and inspiration , Senior Brother Jing Kun's youth films are really good! Maintaining his usual standard!

The teacher's evaluation is also very good, and Brother Jing Kun's acting skills are also passable.

Of course, if it is considered semi-autobiographical, it is also a true character acting, and it is not difficult for him, let alone the directing department itself has to learn acting. "

"Envy, I also want to be a director, or the owner of a film and television company, arrange the plot by myself, and choose the heroine myself!"

The preparations for "Detective Chinatown" have also started for a period of time. During this period, Li Jingkun will also fly to Siam from time to time. The main tasks include: surveying the site, confirming some shooting locations; getting in touch with the local government.

There is a reward system for them to shoot movies here, such as rebates, or how many rewards they can get for hiring local people, etc.

In short, there must be a lot of chores when making a movie, especially when making movies across borders.

In terms of actors, Bai Jingting is a newcomer and doesn't have much acting experience and experience, so the crew arranged for him a teacher early on to teach him acting.And mainly train him with the role of the movie, let him familiarize himself with this role and the whole script in advance.

Several actors also met a few times in advance, such as when taking makeup photos, such as when reading the script and so on.It can be regarded as getting acquainted with each other in advance.

Huang Baoqiang finished filming on "Lost in Thailand"; Huang Bo also asked him to speak, saying that he was really busy and had conflicting schedules, and he would cooperate again when he had the opportunity.

In fact, I met Huang Bo several times at the film festival. Although we didn't talk much, we didn't have any disagreements, let alone we were brothers.Li Jingkun didn't say much, it was a normal thing.

It is because Huang Baoqiang will come to participate in this movie, Huang Bo will just tell him by the way, otherwise there is no need to mention this sentence.

"There's 'suspense,' there's 'action,' and there's 'comedy.'"

"Yes, different scenes also require different color changes."

The style of "Detective Chinatown" is different from the previous movies, so the main creative personnel have also changed. In addition to adding more martial arts instructors, the photographer also invited a new brother, Du Jie, who is also a senior of Jingying.Representative works include "Crazy Stone" and "Laughing Jianghu" and so on.

It's not that Sun Ming is incompetent, but every photographer has his own specialty and familiar style. The lens language of pure urban youth films is still different from that of action comedies.

Including color changes, misplaced sense of camera scheduling, humorous sense of scene, etc., so the changes that should be changed must be upgraded.

When Li Jingkun came to Siam for the scene, the photographer must also come; after watching the venue, Du Jie said: "I basically understand what you mean, tomorrow, I will give you about three choices for each scene tomorrow. You see if it is right, and if it is right, you choose one of them."

And when they were busy in Siam, a group of fans and viewers were like babies waiting to be fed, waiting in front of the computer or mobile phone, waiting for the short film to go online.

Li Jingkun's scarf was also sent by the Longqi Film and Television Propaganda Department with a video link, so that many people could go to Yueshi.com to watch the short film.

So at this time, many people clicked on the play button of "Positive Physique" through his link.
