The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 503 Fanatic Fan Liu Shishi

Chen Kaiquan's original name was Chen Ai'ge.

But Chen Ai Ge, who is 1.8 meters tall, thinks the big white pigeon is boring.

So he changed his name to Chen Kaican with a stroke of his pen, and sang a song of victory with young spirit.

Director Chen actually looks pretty good.

His eyebrows were crescent-shaped and very thick at the ends, which was the standard of thick eyebrows and big eyes in the eyes of the older generation, with vertical lines hidden between his eyebrows.

After "The Promise", a physiognomist in the media analyzed his appearance and said that people with this kind of appearance usually are stubborn and unwilling to admit their mistakes.

Lu Yuan thought this made sense a few years ago, but now he thinks it’s complete nonsense.

Being unwilling to admit that there are problems with oneself is a common problem among most people.

There are not so many perfect people in the world.

Chen Kaiquan walked in front and said without turning his head: "Yimou got angry in front of the media. I can understand him very well."

Lu Yuan was pinching Liu Shishi's little face. Hearing this, he said, "Oh?"

"When I was studying at Beijing Film Academy, there were three of us, Yimou, and Tian Zhuangzhuang. Yimou was the oldest among us, but his family background was much worse. Tian Zhuangzhuang was a good friend to everyone, and he cursed a lot, so he was well-liked by his classmates. Yimou was not good at speaking, and he was a bit rustic at that time, so he didn't interact with people much."

In terms of family background, Tian Zhuangzhuang and Chen Kaican are the pride of artistic families.

Tian Zhuangzhuang's father is the deputy director of the Film Bureau, and Chen Kaikan's father is a famous director. They entered the Film Academy to follow in their father's footsteps.

Zhang Yimou's father and two brothers were former officers at the Kuomintang's Whampoa Military Academy and had poor family backgrounds.

He was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy as an over-age candidate. In addition to his interest in movies, he also wanted to escape from his miserable situation in the past.

Chen Kaiquan concluded: "So he has always had a low self-esteem, is very careful and cares about what others think, and keeps many things to himself. Even though he is successful today, he dare not speak out. In addition, given the historical background of this drama, it is understandable that he was annoyed by Zhang Weiping's use of sex scenes to promote his film."

Lu Yuan nodded. No wonder people always say that the people who care about you and understand you better than your friends are often your competitors.

"It's a pity that you didn't come to film this movie." Chen Kaiquan glanced at him with a little emotion in his tone.

Lu Yuan apologized, "Director Chen, no, senior, I really want to work with you. When The Promise was released, Shi Shi loved this film so much.

We had just met not long ago. After watching the movie, she was amazed and excitedly wrote a review online. I remember it very clearly. She gritted her teeth and her fingers were shaking as she typed, but she was still scolded by haters.

When she found out I had received your invitation at the beginning of the year, she was happier than me and told me to accept it. I wanted to come, but my agent told me that my schedule didn’t allow it. I have a TV series and two movies this year, so I haven’t had much time to rest.”

It is better to reconcile enemies than to create them. Although Chen Kaican is a little narrow-minded, there is no actual conflict between the two.

This guy is really the best at satisfying Director Chen's little temper. He sells the item just because his girlfriend asks him to.

Liu Shishi was hugging her boyfriend's arm, with her head resting on his shoulder, daydreaming.

For example, what to eat later, whether to learn some new knowledge, time seems to be running out, and the stinky man has to rush back to meet up with the crew.
When she suddenly heard "The Promise", her thoughts returned to reality. The subsequent content made her red lips open slightly, and she looked amazed.

You bastard, Lu Yuan you bastard!!

Chen Kaiquan just mentioned it casually. There are not many people in China who want to work with him, but their popularity and acting skills are not as high as Lu Yuan.

He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Liu Shishi was such a discerning person with a foresight. It seemed that she was also his fan. He didn't notice it at all during the filming.

The three of them, each with their own thoughts, walked slowly towards the studio.

"hiss!"

Chen Kai turned around and saw the guy grinning, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yuan pinched his girlfriend's hand and said calmly, "Shi Shi suddenly felt embarrassed when she heard me talking about the past."

Chen Kaiquan looked at Miss Liu with admiration, stopped, smiled slightly, and praised her.

"Shishi is pretty good, her eyes are very spiritual and her mentality is good. Even though her popularity has soared, she remains down-to-earth and won't act casually."

Liu Shishi blinked her eyes. What else could she do? She had to cooperate with the dog's performance.

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her eyes were curved in a crescent shape, and her smile looked particularly sweet and polite.

"Thank you, director."

When Chen Kaige turned around with a smile, her face fell, she puffed up her cheeks and scratched her boyfriend.

Suddenly, Chen Kaiquan said in a melancholy tone: "I was really angry when I saw that video. I worked so hard to make a cheongsam, but you didn't understand it. Not only did you not understand it, but you also changed it into a pair of pants. After changing it, you jumped in front of me and asked me if it looked good. Who can be polite and treat you well?"

Lu Yuan continued his words: "The last thing you should do in life is to worry too much."

"Yes." Chen Kaiquan agreed.

"Now many people on the Internet say that I will never be able to make a work like Farewell My Concubine again, but people and times are like the relationship between fish and water. Big fish appear only when the tide rises, but not when the tide goes down. The same is true for works."

He vaguely defended himself: "I have been filming for so many years. It is difficult for the audience to judge whether the costumes of 2000 years ago are good or not. Everyone has their own opinions. Let future generations judge."

Lu Yuan held Liu Shishi's hands tightly, and did not comment on what Director Chen said.

Putting aside the rumors outside, "Farewell My Concubine" is related to her father.

Only from his later works, we can see that Director Chen is a person who lives in his own world.

Feng Xiaogang once used these words to describe Chen Kaiquan.

"There are some directors in China who should live in an ivory tower, so that they can focus on their favorite images without worrying about making a living, and look back at the nation's past and look forward to a glorious future."

Tian Zhuangzhuang once made the same comment.

"I think the sad and ridiculous thing about these intellectuals is that they actually have a dream. But that dream is false, a utopian thing, and they know they can't realize it."

After walking around the crew and chatting with Chen Kaiquan for a while, Lu Yuan was led by his girlfriend towards the RV.

"Teacher Lu."

Assistant Wang Lili just got out of the car.

"Yeah." Lu Yuan nodded.

Liu Shishi hurriedly pulled him into the car and gave Wang Lili a look.

Wang Lili understood immediately and stood outside the car door with a fierce look in her eyes, not letting anyone approach.

When Lu Yuan saw Liu Shishi making faces and Wang Lili nodding seriously, he was speechless for a moment.

As soon as he closed the car door, he was dragged straight to the dining table.

"Dang, dang, look what I prepared for you."

But on the table there was a piece of pastry, white in appearance, about seven or eight pieces, cut into triangles.

Liu Shishi picked up a piece and handed it over.

"Ah, open your mouth."

Lu Yuan took it and chewed it. It had a soft texture and a faint aroma of wine.

"What is this? It tastes good."

"It's delicious."

She pinched the remaining small piece, raised her chin, and said proudly, "I asked Wang Lili to buy it this morning." "This is called Shuita Cake, also known as Jiuniang Fagao, a local specialty of Ningbo. It is made of fermented rice and mixed with Jiuniang. One morning when there was no notice, Sister Hailu and I were taking a walk nearby and smelled the fragrance, so we went to try it."

"You and Qin Hailu have a good relationship. You often post photos of them together on Weibo."

Lu Yuan held the remaining small piece of her hand in his mouth and sucked his fingers gently at the same time.

"Hmph, who doesn't like seeing this girl?" Liu Shishi raised her eyebrows arrogantly, pulled her fingertips out of his mouth, sat sideways on his lap, put her arms around his neck and started to be affectionate with him.

That's pretty much how the acting business works.

It would be fine if you are not famous, but once you become a little famous, you will be separated from your family more often than not.

Some actors who are on the rise, such as Yang Mi, try their best to take on roles and appear on TV shows in order to maintain their popularity, and they wish they could stay on the crew for 365 days a year.

Throughout the year, I have very few opportunities to meet with my family.

It has been nearly two months since Lu Yuan went to Hengdian to visit the set before flying to Thailand for filming in mid-October, and there are only a few months in a year.

Liu Shishi smelled the scent of her boyfriend and felt her body starting to get hot.

She suddenly pulled the curtains shut, pinched the zipper head of his down jacket with her index finger, gently moved it down, and then put her little hand inside.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

"Hmm." Liu Shishi made some nasal sounds that even she herself was embarrassed to hear.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuan was on a roadshow in Hangzhou this morning. Hangzhou is also known as a food desert. Now he thought the pastry was quite delicious. He ate another piece, then looked up when he noticed the light was getting dim.

"Why are you drawing the curtains?"

After not seeing each other for two months, Liu Shishi felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She lowered her voice and urged, "Eat quickly."

Lu Yuan felt the warm breath on his neck, the fingers moving towards his abdomen, and his delicate body gradually warming up.

He lowered his head and saw her red lips slightly parted and her eyes looking at him dazedly, so he covered them tightly.

"Hmm~"

When the love reached a deep level, Liu Shishi's down jacket had long been taken off, and it was wrinkled around her waist, and she knelt on his legs.

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, lay on his back, and rested his head against the chair pillow.

Miss Liu stood straight, her long black hair loose, holding his cheeks with both hands, kissing his eyebrows, nose tip, lips, neck, collarbone.
I don't know how much time passed, but she started to take off his shirt while groaning.

"Buzzing."

A message came in on his phone. Lu Yuan opened his eyes, pulled his big hand out from inside her shirt, held her soft waist, took a deep breath, and said, "Xu Ke and the others are still waiting for me in Hangzhou. We have to fly to Chongqing later."

"no."

"obedient."

Liu Shishi fell into his arms, panting, with a stern face, pinching the soft flesh on his waist, unhappy.

"Good girl, how much more of your scenes do you have left?" Lu Yuan kissed her forehead and smoothed her bangs.

"There are three more scenes left, and the final scenes will be finished in the next two days."

"That's great, maybe we can catch the premiere of Dragon Gate."

"Hmph." Liu Shishi was extremely unhappy.

"Being a celebrity is not good at all. Even being with the person you like has to conflict with your schedule. And Chen Kaiquan, why is he so annoying? He talks too much. He always talks about the books he has read after a few words. Who cares what books he has read? He doesn't have enough time to begin with."

She complained angrily, but suddenly saw the kiss mark on his neck and burst out laughing.

Lu Yuan didn't understand why, so he held her tightly in his arms, smelling the faint fragrance from her hair, and spending a brief moment of tenderness with her.

Then, he pointed behind her, where there was a black suitcase filled with specialties brought from Thailand.

"Here, a gift for you."

Liu Shishi turned her head and gave him another deep kiss.

Shaoqing, lips parted.

"Why are you biting me?" Lu Yuan was depressed.

"You know it yourself." Miss Liu licked her lips, glared at him sadly, then slid down and slowly opened the suitcase.

“Musang King durian, chocolate, what is this…oh, bird’s nest, dried papaya, dried mango…”

She squatted on the ground and dug something out, with her head lowered, revealing her crystal neck and the pink strawberries on it, muttering to herself.

Lu Yuan took a sip of water, temporarily suppressed the restlessness in his heart, chewed the pastries slowly, and looked at her silently.

"Why are there so many durians?" She came over with a bag and started to open it with grunts.

Lu Yuan pushed her away and asked her to sit opposite him, then sit on his lap. He probably couldn't help himself and said, "I brought some for the two little ones, but they didn't like it. Zhou Qi took a bite and thought it tasted weird. He asked Yaoyao what it was. Yaoyao hid far away, covered her nose and said it was poop. The silly boy believed it and cried. You didn't see it. It was heartbreaking."

"Pfft, hahahaha, Yaoyao really can't bear to be tormented by her own brother!"

On the evening of December 12, "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate" held its premiere at the Wanda Cinema in Shijingshan, Beijing.

Xu Ke's martial arts films can be said to be a color in the history of Chinese-language films. For him, "Dragon Gate" is both a rehash and an ambitious work. It is also a gamble on a new type of martial arts theme, and if he fails, he will die.

So the premiere was huge.

Huang Shengyi, Huang Xiaoming, Hai Qing, Zhang Jizhong, Wang Zhongjun, Hong Kong director Wang Jing and other big names in the film and television industry all came to support the event.

Previously, "Legend of White Snake" was distributed by Bona Film Group, so Huang Shengyi also received a special invitation from Yu Dong to support "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate".

In order to promote his own "Painted Wall", Wang Changtian of Guangxian brought up some old things and exposed her past.

But black and red are also red, and these are all topics.

The red carpet is star-studded, with big names appearing from time to time. Some stars will only stay for a few minutes and then probably leave.

Because "The Flowers of War" was also holding its premiere ceremony, Zhang Yimou's appeal far surpassed Xu Ke's.

"There is a chance for cooperation." Huang Shengyi said with a smile.

"Okay." Lu Yuan simply greeted this senior sister from Beijing Film Academy. In 06, the two collaborated and shot a commercial.

I took out my cell phone and checked it, and found that the message I sent to Liu Shishi had not been replied.

This girl finished filming in the afternoon and said she would be able to make it to the premiere, but she didn't show up, so I was a little worried.

Just as he was fiddling with his phone, wondering whether he should make a call to ask, someone approached.

"Teacher Lu, I wish Dragon Gate a long-lasting box office success."

Lu Yuan looked up, slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Why are you calling me Teacher Lu? It's so strange. Xiaotian, long time no see. What have you been busy with recently?"

The person who came was Yin Xiaotian, who was known as one of the four young actors in mainland China in his early years along with Huang Xiaoming, Tong Dawei and Nie Yuan.

He had a role in Lu Yuan's first TV series, "The Difficult Love of a Diamond Bachelor". After the filming was finished, they would occasionally keep in touch during the holidays.

"I will be filming a drama about fighting against Japanese aggression in two days. I received an invitation from Bona Film Group, so I came to take a look."
