Actor: My Entertainment Era

Liu Yifei has watched "The Funeral" before. As Zhang Yuanjun said, this movie is "the surprise of the year."

She also knew that her husband was fishing with a notebook. The script of "The Invisible Guest" had been kept in the study room at home for two or three years. Liu Yifei had read it very early. At that time, Liu Yifei wanted to change the script to a female protagonist. She wanted to play a villain. Female, but Zhang Yuanjun didn't agree and said to her: "You want to take advantage of all the good movies."

At that time, Liu Yifei was filming "Pacific Rim" and "Super Body" in succession. She was too busy to turn around, so she didn't take this film to heart.

She was very surprised when she learned that Zhang Yuanjun used "The Invisible Guest" to catch Xin Yukun. She knew how much effort Zhang Yuanjun spent writing this book. She originally thought that Zhang Yuanjun would give this book to someone like Cao Baoping who specializes in crime movies. A veteran, or a director like Ning Hao who is familiar with multi-line narratives.

But I didn't expect Zhang Yuanjun to be willing to hand over such a precious book to a new director.

It seems that Zhang Yuanjun really admires Xin Yukun.

After Liu Yifei learned that her husband was fishing for Xin Yukun with "The Invisible Guest", she had no doubt whether Xin Yukun would take the bait.

Except for those directors who refuse to accept outside roles, "The Invisible Guest" is a script that a new director cannot refuse.

No, Xin Yukun took the bait and asked for zero pay to direct.

Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "Don't be so excited. Let me tell you about "The Funeral Coffin" first. I met with the bosses and distribution directors of several film companies. The talks were not very good. They all said that your film was on Theaters can’t make money.”

Xin Yukun heard this countless times and nodded.

Zhang Yuanjun continued: "But everyone says this is a good film, but when it comes to distribution, people always have their own considerations, so take your time."

Xin Yukun nodded again. He knew that there were many constraints in making crime-themed films in China, and he was not in a hurry. He would be satisfied if "The Funeral Coffin" could be released within two years.

Xin Yukun is not in a hurry, and Zhang Yuanjun is even less anxious. "The Funeral" is a good film, but from a commercial perspective, it is really not profitable. Zhang Yuanjun has no intention of making money from this film. He really couldn't bear to watch such a good film when he took over. Buried for too long.

Xin Yukun mentioned "The Invisible Guest" again: "This book is really good, I..."

Liu Yifei, who was acting as a wingman and supporting, joked: "I almost scratched my head when I wrote it."

"I..." Xin Yukun wanted to say something else, but as soon as the words came to his lips, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

The door of the lounge rang twice, then opened a crack, and a person leaned in half-way. It was Huang Xiaoming: "I said you didn't leave, so you were hiding here."

Seeing the couple talking to someone, Huang Xiaoming said politely: "Are you talking about something?"

Zhang Yuanjun walked over and pulled Huang Xiaoming in: "Nothing, let's chat." Yang Ying followed behind him and also came in.

"Who is this?" Huang Xiaoming was surprised when he saw Xin Yukun.

"Director Xin Yukun."

"Oh, you must be the director of "Funeral Coffin"." Huang Xiaoming actually knew it too.

"Yes." Xin Yukun laughed twice. Although "Funeral Coffin" has not been released to the public, it has indeed won him a certain reputation in the industry.

Huang Xiaoming said: "I didn't go to FIRST this year, but I heard from my friends who came back that your films were very good."

"Thank you." Xin Yukun thanked him. They all praised the shooting, but no one paid to help.

"Let's go have a drink later?" Huang Xiaoming invited.

"You still want to drink?" Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.

"It's a late night snack." Huang Xiaoming said with a smile, "It's almost getting cold. Let's have another crayfish."

Zhang Yuanjun said: "I'm not going. I'll get up early tomorrow to film."

Huang Xiaoming looked at Liu Yifei again. Liu Yifei looked at her husband with a smile. Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said, "You see what I'm doing when I invite you. It seems as if I'm very strict with you." As soon as Zhang Yuanjun said this, everyone in the room people all laughed.

Liu Yifei then said to Xiao Ming: "You guys go ahead and eat. I'll go back and go to bed early. I'm too tired from having this celebration party."

"What movies are you filming recently?" Zhang Yuanjun asked him.

"A Sino-American co-production, "Rampage in Hollywood."

Zhang Yuanjun has been traveling between China and the United States all year round and has heard of this film: "The one about Lin Yibin?"

This film is based on Lin Yibin's signature.

"Yes. I have some scenes in China, and I will go to the United States after filming." Co-production films are very popular now, and Huang Xiaoming feels that he is lucky to catch this train.

But the strange thing is that Zhang Yuanjun and his wife have never been involved in co-productions. It stands to reason that they have made some progress in Hollywood, and they should be looking for co-production scripts.

Zhang Yuanjun admitted that he was indeed looking for a co-production script: "But I always felt bad about it, so I didn't take it."

After chatting for a few more words, Huang Xiaoming took Yang Ying and left.

Huang Xiaoming's interruption made it difficult for Xin Yukun to mention "The Invisible Guest" again. Zhang Yuanjun hurried back and it was inconvenient to talk more.

In fact, Zhang Yuanjun is very optimistic about Xin Yukun, but he is still not at ease.

As Huang Silang said, he has the courage, but what about his ability? Why does Zhang Yuanjun believe that Xin Yukun can successfully film "The Invisible Guest"?
In Zhang Yuanjun's eyes, the crew of "Funeral Coffin" is not even a grass-stage crew. Why does Zhang Yuanjun believe that Xin Yukun can run a crew of several hundred people?
So he gave Xin Yukun two months: "Come with a team building plan and director's storyboard. You can't just say that if you want to shoot, I will let you shoot."

Xin Yukun has been working in venture capital all year round, making plans, writing PPTs, and giving presentations. These are all basic skills: "No problem, I will come up with a plan when the time comes." Xin Yukun also knows that it is not easy to get the opportunity to direct.

The three of them broke up. Liu Yifei teased her husband: "He really looks like a boss." Following Zhang Yuanjun's tone, she said, "I'll give you two months to come up with a team building plan and director's storyboard."

"Quite stylish."

Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "It's not bad."

That night and the next morning, there were many news reports on the Internet about the celebration banquet.

They were talking about how grand the celebration banquet was and how high-status the guests were.

However, among the praises congratulating Liu Yifei for winning the Best Actress Award, there are also many unpleasant voices.

What Zhang Yuanjun was worried about finally happened.

After Liu Yifei won the Saint Sera, she created a huge momentum in the country. Just as Liu Yifei said, people who didn't know thought she won an Oscar.

In short, the gold content of the actress Sheng Sai is not worthy of such a large publicity campaign.

Some netizens have expressed obvious resistance and disgust towards Liu Yifei's recent publicity.

"Aren't you annoyed? I won a great prize and have been trending for a week!"

"Your family should open Weibo!"

So this is the troublesome part of promoting an artist. It’s difficult to get it just right. However, Liu Yifei’s team was very quick and pushed the news down the next afternoon.

In fact, this period of publicity has come to an end, the awards have been won, and the celebration banquet has been held. There is no need to stay in hot searches, Liu Yifei still has to work. (End of chapter)
