Director: Female stars want to improve too much

Chapter 119 How can we play with such awesomeness? What a coincidence that you are also touching it? (Please subscribe)

That night, Dong Jie was held down by Xing Baizhou and violently educated with a stick.

After that, her whole person became radiant, exuding an aura of "confidence". Is this a woman who has support and a background?

at this time.

Liu Shishi, Wang Likun, Tong Yaya and others sitting next to Dong Jie were all a little curious and asked Dong Jie what happy event had happened.

Dong Jie smiled and responded that it was nothing.

Tang Yan and Li Xiaoran had experienced Director Xing's stick education, and they vaguely guessed where Dong Jie's confidence came from.

Because the two of them also behaved like this after being developed by Director Xing. It was the feeling that they suddenly felt that their lives were looking forward to and they no longer had to worry.

It's like a hard-working worker in a big city who suddenly received a call from home saying that he was compensated 1000 million yuan for demolition...

In this case, they feel so confident that they can even beat their superiors.

This is the situation for Dong Jie now.

"Zhang Songwen's performance is good."

"She has the look of a natural beauty from the 1970s. This He Xiaoping is really good."

Wang Luodan, Dong Jie and others were a little jealous in their hearts.

But Xing Baizhou just wanted to hear what Feng Xiaogang had to say.

Sina: Director Xing, when will the second part of "Pirates of the Caribbean" be filmed?

Sohu: Can you tell me why you are able to control two completely different types of movies, "Youth" and "Pirates of the Caribbean"?

Entertainment News: "Pirates of the Caribbean" won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Picture. What do you want to say?

Film Weekly: Now that you have become a major international director, will your future focus be at home or abroad?

NetEase: What are your expectations for the box office of "Youth"?

Questions came one after another, and Xing Baizhou answered them in turn. Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye before the media friends put away their microphones with satisfaction.

The reporters took the lead in asking questions.

After that.

Huang Shengyi, Jia Nailiang, Dong Ao, Zhu Yawen and others are all there.

soon.

Something called a sense of age is revealed bit by bit from the pictures and music, instantly transporting the audience into the environment of the 1970s.

Liu Feng and He Xiaoping are running in the rain with their luggage. The colors in the picture are warm and beautiful, giving people a very beautiful feeling. They don't feel the impatience caused by the heavy rain at all.

After all, this movie is a subject close to his heart, and it was also made in his previous life.

"..."

The rest, in addition to reporters and film critics, are students from the Nortel Acting Department, ranging from the 2000 to 2002 grades.

"Oh, this girl is so pure."

……

The movie hasn't started yet.

At the end of the movie, everyone stood up and applauded, and everyone gave the crew of "Youth" a warm round of applause.

The projector's wheel rotates slowly, and the light and shadow flow on the screen like water ripples.

Many media seized on Feng Xiaogang's words and reported them extensively.

The next day.

This small detail is to increase the audience's sense of immersion and bring them into the movie world quickly.

The screen showed him a side profile, and then began to change direction, quickly advancing to the men and women Zhang Songwen and Liu Shishi.

In the auditorium, the heroines of "Youth" were all sitting in the first row on the side. Everyone was dressed beautifully and had their own little thoughts.

As the lights went out, the screening room fell into darkness.

After all, Liu Shishi is the heroine, and they are just supporting roles. Their role and attention are far behind. Who doesn't envy Liu Shishi! ?

Dong Jie had already made up his mind that he would use all his strength to make Director Xing suffer a great loss, and then he would find a heroine or something.

Hearing the voices of the people around them, Zhang Songwen and Liu Shishi were a little surprised. This shows that the audience has a good impression of them.

When the picture showed Liu Shishi's delicate, pure and childish profile, the scene couldn't help but burst into discussion.

The first scene of the movie.

Liu Feng and He Xiaoping were talking under the eaves, which was the scene that Xing Baizhou personally demonstrated to Liu Shishi.

Han Sanping and the department chair briefly spoke a few words, and the movie officially started.

Jiang Wen, wearing a military uniform and a raincoat, stood by the wall with a paint bucket and wrote slogans.

now.

The two of them play the male protagonist Liu Feng and the female protagonist He Xiaoping respectively.

Sitting in the middle of the first row are the leaders of China Film and Nortel, as well as celebrities such as Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen, and Ge You who were invited to increase the popularity.

Liu Xiaoqian is not here because she is filming "Dragon" in Zhejiang Province, but the girl also sent him a congratulatory message: "Brother, I wish your new movie will be a hit!"

At this time, Feng Pengtong was still immersed in the movie and had not thought about it. Facing the microphone handed over by Xing Baizhou, he laughed and said: "How can I say this movie...it's great! Director Xing is really awesome. I feel ashamed of myself.”

"Is this girl from a Chinese drama? She's so pretty."

At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier.

Many film critics expressed their opinions one after another. In summary, they all expressed their affirmation of the movie and believed that "Youth" can be a big seller.

Two hours of viewing time flew by.

Sina: ["Youth" premiered to rave reviews, Feng Xiaogang said frankly: Xing Baizhou is very good, I feel ashamed! 】

NetEase: [Feng Xiaogang felt extremely ashamed after watching "Youth". How can he be bright when he is already good? 】

When Feng Pengtong saw these news, he was extremely angry: "Made, I'm just being polite, these media are really nothing."

His wife Xu Fan smiled and comforted him: "Oh, isn't that what the media is like? Besides, why are you competing with young people? Just make your own movies."

Feng Pengtong sighed: "Well, that's what I said, but I have to save face as an adult. It's okay to be suppressed by Xing Baizhou once or twice, but I can't be suppressed by him forever."

Xu Fan: "What? Do you still want to stand up?"

Feng Xiaogang: "Why can't I? Watch my next movie surpass Xing Baizhou, hum!"

……

There are not many movies released in November.

But there is one movie that has received an unusually high amount of attention: "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets."

The film earned US$8.78 million in its previous life, ranking second on the global box office list in 2002.

but.

Although "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" was released at the same time as "Youth", it had no impact on "Youth".

Because it was not released domestically.

Xing Baizhou was not worried about Harry Potter's magic, but he made Smith anxious.

This old boy has been on the phone for the past two days, saying every day that he is afraid that "Harry Potter" will usurp "Pirates of the Caribbean" from the top two spots.

How to tell him that "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" will surpass "Spider-Man" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" at the box office? And then it was surpassed by "Lord of the Rings 12" released in December?

"Smith, you are so worried. We have already won. Aren't you satisfied with US$7.8 million?" Xing Baizhou laughed and cursed on the phone.

"Hahaha, Xing, I'm very satisfied, but who doesn't want to be ranked higher!" Smith said cowardly.

"Okay, okay, next time, let's make a more awesome movie that will make the Big Six in Hollywood tremble."

"They must tremble. Damn it. Recently, the Sixth National Congress has been trying to smear our Lions Gate. It's too damning." After a pause, Smith suddenly asked: "By the way, Xing, what is your next blockbuster? Davis asked me to tell you that he wants to make Caribbean 2..."

"It's a secret for the time being. I'm busy with the release of "Youth" this month. See you in 2003..."

11 month 8 number.

Youth was released simultaneously in hundreds of cities across the country. Guangzhou, China Film International Cinemas.

A dozen middle-aged people in their forties, both men and women, walked into the cinema together.

They came specially to see "Youth".

One of the men, who had an upright body and a strong body, laughed and said, "I heard that this movie has a 6-minute gunfight scene that lasts until the end. I want to see this."

A pretty aunt said: "You guys in the field brigade know how to fight and kill. We are here to see the cultural troupe."

These people are all veterans.

Back then, they were in the same unit and participated in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam.

Because the day of the party coincided with the release of "Youth", after everyone finished eating, they went to the cinema to watch and recall their life in the army.

A group of middle-aged people walked into the cinema and attracted the attention of many people.

Many young people have guessed that they may be veterans.

After sitting down.

This group of veterans began to whisper about their lives in the army. As the movie started, their voices became quieter and they began to look seriously.

The first half of the movie was all about the art troupe, and the female veterans of the art troupe were particularly excited, as if they saw their own shadows in the movie.

When the movie progressed to the second half and the protagonist Liu Feng entered the field unit, the male soldiers began to get excited. They couldn't help but whisper to each other about the firearms held by the actor.

When the six-minute shot of the encounter began, the veterans clenched their fists and wished they could rush in and fight the Vietnamese soldiers themselves.

"Quick, machine gun cover."

"Get down, get down."

"Tanks go up, infantry and tanks coordinate."

"..."

These six minutes of footage made the veterans' blood boil.

The same feeling was shared by the boys who went to watch the movie with their girlfriends. They were also attracted by the war scene.

"This picture was taken so well."

"It's so cool to take one shot, the sense of immersion is so strong."

"It would be so cool if this shot was shot in 3D."

"Xing Baizhou is so awesome. Fantasy films like "Pirates of the Caribbean" are so awesome. Even literary films like "Youth" are also good."

"The actresses here are all so beautiful. He Xiaoping is so beautiful. The captain of the dance team seems to be Li Xiaoran. She's so fair!"

Not long after the movie ended, there was a discussion about it online, and it was almost unanimously positive.

Especially the one-shot scene was praised by netizens.

"Fuck, this scene is really awesome, and it's such a long war scene."

"This section is almost like a god. Has any domestic movie ever done this?"

“It doesn’t seem to exist in China, but there is a film in Russia that uses a long one-shot, and it was nominated for this year’s Best Picture at Cannes. However, I still think “Youth” is great, after all, it is a one-shot war scene. "

"..."

Sina even published an article: [One shot shows Xing Baizhou’s directing skills, and he deserves to be the first]

Compared with these false names, the movie box office is more real.

It earned more than 400 million at the box office on the day it was released, and exceeded 800 million on both Saturday and Sunday.

A total of more than 2900 million was gained in the first week.

Professionals have given analysis that the final box office of "Youth" may exceed 7000 million.

This is a literary film...

How can this leave directors in China who are lying on the hot bed of literary and artistic films to survive?

Everyone is thinking about how to win foreign competitions, win awards, and sell copyrights. What's better, just use art films to kill people in movie theaters?

A man slapped half the director on the face. Xing Baizhou felt that he was too harsh.

For example, Wang Xiaoshuai's last movie "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" only earned over 300 million at the box office when it was released in theaters.

If the copyright hadn't been sold abroad, I would have lost all my money.

Directors such as Feng Tongtong, Chen Shishi, Zhang Yimou, Xu Ke, Li Yu, Wang Jiawei, Zhou Xingchi and others are reflecting on themselves. Why can Xing Baizhou achieve high box office but he cannot?

Many directors who had projects in hand have stopped.

For example, Poet Chen was planning to make a literary film. After seeing the success of Xing Baizhou's "Youth", he didn't dare to make it.

Because he was afraid that after he filmed it, the box office would be miserable.

In fact, they are not afraid that everyone will suffer together. In that case, they can blame the "artistic films".

"Low box office? Losing money?? Well, literary and artistic films, that's it. If you want to make money, don't make literary and artistic films..."

But now, this sentence is no longer true.

The box office of Xing Baizhou's literary and artistic films is expected to exceed 7000 million, which is a shame to everyone. How can you still say that literary and artistic films do not make money?

and so.

Poet Chen decisively gave up the idea of ​​continuing to make literary films and started preparing for an oriental fantasy epic film "The Promise".

……

The celebration banquet of "Youth" was held in the capital.

The scale of the celebration banquet was not large. Xing Baizhou only invited some actors, not even Han Sanping.

Several female protagonists, including Liu Shishi, Wang Luodan, Wang Likun, Li Xiaoran, Tong Yaya and Tang Yan, are now well known to the audience.

Especially Liu Shishi and Wang Luodan, because they have more scenes, there is a vague trend of becoming popular now.

Other women are envious.

Among the male actors, the leading actor Zhang Songwen has completely entered the audience's field of vision, and people will remember this powerful Nortel student.

Xing Baizhou picked up the freshly cooked mutton in the copper pot, dipped it in some garlic, stuffed it into his mouth, and said with satisfaction: "The success of this movie is inseparable from everyone's hard work. Come on, let's cheer."

After the celebration banquet, a group of people proposed to sing.

When they arrived at the KTV, as soon as Director Xing sat down, Dong Jie and Tang Yan grabbed his left and right sides, and these two women almost pressed their breasts against his arms.

As for Li Xiaoran, who was a little older and didn't want to compete with these girls yet, she couldn't help rolling her eyes while sitting next to her: "These two little prodigals are really too blatant."

Other women, such as Liu Shishi and Tong Yaya, were too shy to take the initiative like Tang Yan.

Due to the dim lighting in the KTV, the two women next to me didn't hold their hands carefully.

He first felt Dong Jie's hand reaching into his pants. Two minutes later, he found another hand coming in, this time it was Tang Yan's.

Tang Yan and Dong Jie thought they had touched Xing Baizhou's hand and squeezed each other.

But they soon discovered that the other party's hand was too tender and was not Xing Baizhou's hand at all. Could it be...

At this time, the two women suddenly looked at each other, and Xing Baizhou understood what they wanted to say from their eyes——

Dong Jie: "Are you touching Director Xing's crotch too?"

Tang Yan: "Yes, what a coincidence!"
