During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 472: You've bitten, it's time for the director to test your acting skills

Beijing, Xishan Villa.

Wei Jin leaned against the headboard with his hands on his head, his whole body lying in a "Tai" shape on the snow-white bed, and Liu Yifei was biting her hard under him.

The art of biting is actually very profound. When to go deeper, when to curl more, and the speed of the rhythm all test the player's skills.

But after more than four years of training, Liu Yifei would not say that she has fully mastered this skill, but at least she is an expert at it and knows it well.

So at this moment, Director Wei Jin expressed his satisfaction, patted the girl's cheeks which were a little red due to holding her breath, and said jokingly:

"Yifei, now that you've bitten, it's time for the director to test your acting skills."

Although the bite was on Wei Jin, Liu Yifei also felt the same way. She could no longer hold back and her big eyes were full of water and seductiveness.

"elder brother."

"Hey, at the audition, you have to refer to your position."

If she gave Wei Jin a coquettish look, the man would behave strangely. However, Liu Yifei also enjoyed this kind of pleasure in bed.

So she took a pillow and lay on it, raising her beautiful buttocks high, getting ready for the audition.

"Director, I'm ready."

"Well, you are already very good at controlling the camera position. Now it depends on how well we can get along. Get ready, I'm going to start shooting."

After saying this, Wei Jin held the snow-white slender waist with one hand and the delicate, soft, plump and elastic buttocks with the other hand and started shooting.

"Well, Yifei, even though I can't see your facial expression, the micro-expressions of your body are also very important, as well as your tone of voice, etc. You have to show your true colors and not just mess around."

"Hmm~~~ Director brother~~~"

Liu Yifei's melodious singing voice made Wei Jin feel numb all over. This was the name he called her when he was on the set of "Those Years", and memories instantly came back to him.

"Very good, keep this state. Although it is only a short word, it fully displays the character's psychological activities at the moment. The state of being satisfied, expecting to be fulfilled, and trembling with excitement is captured very well."

Wei Jin was filming and giving instructions at the same time, and Liu Yifei became more and more immersed in the role, so much so that this scene, which had not been rehearsed in advance, was shot in one take.

"Okay, Yifei, this scene is over, it's time to adjust the camera position and move on to the next one."

Wei Jin turned the girl over, leaned forward, placed his hands on the inner bends of her knees, put his palms on her back, and applied slight force.

Liu Yifei and Wei Jin had cooperated many times and knew the camera position on the scene instantly. She then stretched out her hands, wrapped them around Wei Jin's neck, and instantly became airborne.

“Oh~~~~”

This scene is mainly about sports, which is a great test of the actors' ability to control the camera position. For the director, it is a test of whether he can capture the actors in their best condition during the movement.

At this moment, Wei Jin and Liu Yifei cooperated very well. The amplitude of ups and downs, the rhythm of movement, the control of camera position, etc. were all coordinated perfectly.

However, this type of scene usually has a greater impact on the actresses. In just half an hour, Liu Yifei had already failed twice.

"Director~~~I can't do it anymore, let's take a break"

"Yeah, I think it's almost done, it will be ready soon."

As a dedicated director, Wei Jin captured the last shot perfectly, completing the filming and shooting.

“Ah~ah~ah~ah~~~”

As the actress sang loudly, the audition finally came to an end.
After the clouds and rain stopped, Wei Jin held the already limp Liu Yifei in his arms and told her the outline of the story in detail.

The script prepared this time is "The Fault in Our Stars", a literary romance film about young men and women suffering from cancer who lean on each other and encourage each other in the last moments of their lives.

This type of art film undoubtedly requires very high acting skills and emotional involvement, so Liu Yifei frowned after listening to Wei Jin's narration.

She discovered that Wei Jin's previous judgment was not a joke and that she really could not handle this kind of role.

As if he had noticed the little girl's thoughts, Wei Jin held her tighter in his arms, reached out to hold Daju and comforted her.

"Yifei, this time, we are not in a hurry. You have enough time to figure out the role. On the one hand, you can learn about the external performance and inner dynamics of terminally ill patients through some feature films and documentaries. On the other hand, you can also learn about some cases from real life."

Liu Yifei nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, brother, I understand. I will study the script carefully."

"Well, prepare well. I estimate that it will not start until next year. If it doesn't perform well by then, you can't blame anyone."

Liu Yifei pouted, a little unconvinced: "Humph, brother, you have to prepare more too, so that the big director can take over my role, tut tut."

Wei Jin raised his eyebrows. Oh my goodness, this is going to rebel against Tian Gang. How can this be tolerated?
So he turned over and pressed the girl under him, with a teasing smile on his face.

"Then, please ask Teacher Liu to give my students some pointers on their acting skills tonight?"

"Hmm~"

Before the little girl could say anything, Wei Jin sealed it.

That night, Teacher Liu taught with his own hands and attentively, which benefited Wei Jin a lot.
Although the Golden Horse Awards cannot compare with the three major European awards, they are the three major Chinese awards after all. Domestic audiences will be more familiar with them, so the nomination of "Girl in the Bottom" has remained a hot topic and has been discussed quite a lot online.

This also made the movie's box office performance stronger and stronger, and it earned 2 million on the 5800nd day.

At this point, in just 4 days, the box office of "Girl at the Bottom" has exceeded 2 million.

Wei Jin was just about to pay attention to the situation of other movies when he received a call from Zhang Xu.

"Boss Wei, there is something I need to report to you."

"Ok?"

Wei Jin leaned back on the sofa and crossed his legs, "What about the contract?"

"Well, Pan Yueming wants to sign a contract, and Zhou Dongyu also came to me."

Wei Jin was a little surprised when he heard this, "Huh? Pan Yueming has been working alone for so many years, how come he wanted to sign a contract? When did it happen?"

"Just after the four young talents were announced, I guess I was stimulated."

Wei Jin nodded, understanding that Pan Yueming had been a handsome young man since his debut, but because no one supported him, he was almost never on the list.

Although Pan Yueming is now old and does not meet the election criteria, it does not mean that he cannot feel the benefits of clinging to someone powerful.

Just think about it, something that you have always desired but could not get is now obtained by the younger generation again and again. Most people cannot bear this gap.

In comparison, freedom may not be so important.

"Okay, then sign it."

Wei Jin still has a good impression of Pan Yueming. There is nothing fishy about him, not to mention that he has a relationship with Chen Xi.

In addition, the company's male artists happen to lack this type of handsome uncle. Qiao Zhenyu is not one of them. He has taken good care of himself and can continue to be a youth idol for a few more years. "Then President Wei, what does Zhou Dongyu say?"

"What do you think?"

Zhang Xu didn't seem to expect Wei Jin to bring the topic back. After thinking for a while, he said:

"Boss Wei, I think this girl is not so innocent. When Director Zhang just signed the contract last year, she was still in frequent contact with us. The company had several projects and invited her to participate, but she didn't like them. Later, we had less contact. As far as I know, she has been having a hot relationship with Wang Jinhua for the past six months."

Wei Jin understood after hearing this. In fact, Zhang Xu had already made a judgment in his mind, but he did not dare to say it directly for the sake of Lao Mouzi's face.

"Okay, since they are looking for a better partner, we don't need to worry too much and just reject them directly."

"Okay, Mr. Wei."

Although it does not have an advantage in terms of subject matter, relying on the contrast with its peers, the performance of "Girl at the Bottom" is stronger than the industry expected.

As the saying goes, the strong will always be strong. The siphon effect of the film market appeared again, and a large number of audiences were attracted by "The Girl at the Bottom".

No. 3, 5340 million;
No. 4, 5160 million;
After six days of release, "Girl in the Bottom" grossed 6 million yuan.

In sharp contrast to this are the other films in the National Day holiday.

The movie "Dangerous Liaisons" starring Zhang Ziyi has been released for a week and the box office is only 2840 million.

"Tai Chi 1" didn't fare much better, with box office revenue of just over 8 million after eight days of release.

In comparison, "Double Exposure", which cost only 2000 million to produce, performed slightly better. Relying on the fame of director Li Yu and the explosive erotic scenes, it grossed more than 6 million in box office after days.

At this moment, there is a lot of ridicule on the Internet, most of which is directed at "Tai Chi 1" and "Dangerous Liaisons".

"Huayi's slogans were so loud that they dared to boast that the two films combined could make 10 billion yuan. Now they have been slapped in the face, right? According to the current situation, Huayi's boasts have to fall to the ground. The box office of Tai Chi 2 must be more than million yuan. Do you believe it?"

"Brother, the box office is 10 billion. They didn't mention the unit. Maybe it's New Taiwan dollars or Japanese yen? Hahahaha"

"Dude, you're talented, hahaha."

"Zhang Ziyi's face must be swollen from being beaten. The appeal of the Four Dans and Two Bings has been completely destroyed by her."

"Isn't this the most popular top-tier actress in the country?"

"The 2000 million yuan pay is really not worthy of the name, the producer has fainted in the toilet crying"

Huayi Headquarters.

"Damn, is this movie that good? Is it really possible that he and his family have dominated the entire National Day period?!"

Wang Zhongjun said sternly with a dark face, in front of him sat Wang Zhonglei, Chen Guofu, Feng Delun and several executives.

Wang Zhonglei is a little helpless at the moment. He had vowed to put the show on the National Day schedule head-on. He thought he had the advantage of three against one, but before the other party could even make a move, a group of "mobs" fell first.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wang Zhongjun didn't know what to say. He sighed and added:
"Forget it, let's prepare for Tai Chi 2. We need to come up with a plan for publicity to minimize the impact."

"Understood, Mr. Wang."

A group of people shouted loudly, but they were unsure in their hearts.

When shooting movies together, there is always an inevitable problem: if the reputation of the first movie is bad, the second movie will inevitably be affected.

The situation of "Tai Chi 2" is not optimistic.

If Huayi’s embarrassment is said to be due to its overestimation of its own strength and underestimation of the opponent’s strength.

Perhaps Zhang Ziyi deserved what happened to her. She was paid 20 million yuan for the film, which was too high-profile. She almost wanted the whole world to know about it.

Nowadays, if the movie can’t carry the box office, slander, questioning and criticism will naturally follow.

Even the entire "Dangerous Liaisons" crew became the target of criticism in the industry.

There is no way. For the movie "Dangerous Liaisons", the combined pay of the three main actors, Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Baizhi, and Jang Dong-gun, is as high as more than 50 million, which really sets a bad precedent for the industry.

"Xiao Jin, do you think that if an actor gets paid so much, it will not affect the normal operation of the crew? Doesn't the producer consider the risks?"

After Zeng Li coaxed Dudu to sleep, she browsed the relevant reports online and asked this question with a frown.

"Well, how should I put it?"

Wei Jin held the beauty in his arms, feeling the plump figure of his mature sister, and thought for a while before explaining.

"Due to the current domestic market environment, 2000 million is basically the ceiling for female actors. This price is not high. And normally, with a cost of 2 million, 30% of it is not outrageous as an actor's salary. The key is the problem of the film."

To put it bluntly, Wei Jin even maliciously speculated that the production team of "Dangerous Liaisons" was intentionally shifting the blame, and perhaps Zhang Baizhi, Jang Dong-gun and others were also fanning the flames behind the scenes, attributing all the problems to Zhang Ziyi.

"In addition, domestic film producers like Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, who are international stars, will also reduce their pay to avoid the problem you mentioned.

In foreign countries, top stars usually get a basic salary plus a share of the box office revenue, so if Li Jie takes on a role in the future, she can also sign a contract like this, and the film company should not refuse. Of course, art films are another consideration."

To be honest, the current domestic film pay is really not too high. With the rapid development of the film industry, in a few years, celebrity artists will really make a fortune.

"That's it"

Zeng Li nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that the key still lay with the crew. Then she remembered something else.

"Xiao Jin, today is Yuanyuan's birthday, have you called her?"

Wei Jin held the beauty tighter in his arms and touched the white skin on her chest with one hand.

"Of course, I already called you when you were trying to coax Dudu to sleep."

Zeng Li nodded. She was just asking casually. Her man was impeccable in all other aspects except being a little fickle. When she was in North America, he would ask about her well-being on the phone almost every day.

But maybe it is precisely because of this that it is so popular among young girls?
While Zeng Li was daydreaming, Wei Jin had already buried his head deeply. The complex touch brought by the grinding of his lips and teeth brought her back to her senses instantly.

"Hmm~~~Xiao Jin, be gentle~~"

Wei Jin did not respond, but his movements became more gentle, and his hands supported the big orange from below.

"Mmm~~ Sister Li, it tastes so good~~~"

After about two or three minutes, Wei Jin left reluctantly, savoring the taste lingering on his lips, then stood up and moved forward.

"Sister Li, it's your turn now."

The familiar smell and hot breath made Zeng Li's heart tremble. She slowly opened her red lips and kissed him.

"Oh~~"
