Become a dramatist from today

"You are the face of our team." Li Maofeng saw that Huang Baiyou looked like a dog, and couldn't help but sigh that it's great to be young. His face is full of "collagen", unlike him, whose face is a bit slumped and time is not forgiving. ah.

"I just have a good-looking skin. Unlike Brother Li, who has both good looks and connotation, especially his aggressive and strong temperament, it's like walking on a glass plank in the sky. It's dangerous and exciting." Huang Baiyou opened his mouth. .

"I often hear people talking about business bragging on the Internet. You are the leader of the group that praises people." Even though Li Maofeng knew that he was just being complimentary, the feeling of being praised to his heart's content still made Li Maofeng's grin uncontrollable. live.

But Li Maofeng knew in his heart that the young man in front of him was not a template produced by the current entertainment industry factory. He had a poise that was beyond his age, and a sense of looking at things from God's perspective.

"How many awards are Director Tong planning to win today?

"Mr. Chu, I feel that it is very likely to win the best screenplay."

Huang Baiyou greeted the director and screenwriter, and then turned his attention to Zhou Xilin, who was taciturn. His face could not be seen through the makeup, but the details could be seen in his clothes.

Wearing a formal suit with green fruit collar, the lapel is made of silk satin, the brooch worn is a little bit wrong, two buttons and one and a half buttons are exposed on the left and right cuffs, and the energy is very low. Didn't you sleep well last night?

Because Zhou exercises regularly, his chest muscles are much larger than those of Cheng Guang, who is a sports boy. In addition, his shoulders are also wider, so he is suitable for wearing formal clothes with green fruit collars. However, now his chest muscles are "thin" and can't hold up the clothes. .

I haven't exercised for a while, and my depression has not been relieved, and it is getting worse? Huang Baiyou glanced at it and observed every detail.

Huang Baiyou took the initiative to stir up the topic, but Zhou Xilin lacked interest and could only maintain superficial communication.

"Why don't you see Teacher Zhao Jiang?" Huang Baiyou asked.

"The chairman of this year's jury is a good friend of Teacher Zhao, so he left us and went there early. But we can also meet at the event, so it's okay." Li Maofeng responded.

The old actor has a wide network of contacts, and Brother Li still talks in the same way, the first half is a thorn, and the second half is to make up for it.

On the way, Huang Baiyou heard from screenwriter Chu Quan that the chairman of this year’s jury is also the president of the Xidu Actors Association and a national first-class actor.

The group arrived at their destination talking and laughing.

The three major European cities have the Palais des Festivals, which is famous for its events: the Blue Carpet Palace in Cannes, the Palazzo Belvedere in Venice, and the Berlin Film Palace in Berlin.

Domestic film festivals are relatively casual. This year's opening ceremony and closing award ceremony of the Xidu Film Festival were held at the Fifth Ring Stadium on Yatai Street.

At this moment, there was a battle outside the stadium. Sina News, Penguin News, Kuaishou News, "Xidu Daily", "Ji Province Morning Post" and other media were all on standby.

The shutter sound card clicked, and the presence of reporters on both sides added value to the long red carpet. If it were a Western classic literature, it would be described like this: the blood of good people turned white because the color was stepped on the soles of their feet.

Behind the reporter was the guardrail, where more passers-by gathered to watch the excitement. As far as the eye could see, it was so dark that it was unclear whether there was any fan group.

"Bai You, please go ahead."

"Yes, Teacher Huang is standing in our C position. This can improve the appearance of our entire crew."

Everyone said so, but Huang Baiyou would not be honest enough to really stand in the middle. The C position was still director Tong Qu.

Even though it was his first time to attend the opening ceremony of the film festival in two lifetimes, Huang Baiyou walked with confidence and power.

Huang Baiyou even felt that his expectations were slightly disappointed. Isn't it said that the entertainment industry is Vanity Fair? Is it synonymous with gorgeous, sparkling, and being surrounded by stars? The current scene was not even as good as the Uta. Frith Cognitive Psychology Award Ceremony that he had attended in his previous life.

"You have a good frame, but your shoulder width is a little weaker than Xi Lin's. You can't make it into a double-door refrigerator, but a small refrigerator is fine."

Everyone "doodled" on the signature wall and asked reporters on the scene to take a few photos as promotional materials. As they were walking to the venue, Li Maofeng suddenly spoke to Huang Baiyou.

In the entertainment industry, Huang Baiyou's appearance is not as good as those above, but more than above. To be more specific, it's not enough to just rely on your face to make a living, but it's totally fine to act in an idol drama. After all, I was originally from an idol talent show.

"I just feel like my shoulders are a little narrower, my leg length ratio is a little too high, almost 55, my facial skin is a little worse, and my hairline is a little higher, but other than that, I don't have any shortcomings." Li Maofeng said.

Hey, is this self-comfort or self-harm?

Even after being on the set for so long, Huang Baiyou didn't notice that Li Maofeng was quite concerned about his appearance. At present, it seems that he even cares as much as his acting skills.

"My facial features are not refined enough either." Having said this, Huang Baiyou added a shortcoming.

"Compared to He Qiao from the same company as yours, it's a little worse, but it's more than enough to be a school idol in the school." Li Maofeng said.

The big brother's ability to make up for the second half is sometimes better than nothing.

"Bai You, you didn't take a departure photo, did you?" Li Maofeng asked.

Departure photo? Huang Baiyou looked at Li Maofeng in surprise.

"Celebrities will be the first to post photos on social media before setting off to participate in activities." Li Maofeng explained, "The outfits worn for departure photos and those worn on the red carpet are generally not the same, so for contemporary young people, the duel starts from the moment they set off. It’s already started.”

"So you have to change clothes just for the departure photo?" Huang Baiyou was surprised.

"Of course, half of the celebrities with connections and fashion resources will ask brands to borrow two sets of clothes. I did this for a year or two." Li Maofeng looked at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle, "But later I found that it is easier to improve my acting skills. , I just ask the agency not to get closer to the fashion circle, but to rely more on my works, which is not bad, and I can make a name for myself as a [niche island]."

Huang Baiyou knows that when it comes to borrowing clothes from brands, he always borrows them from Dior for events such as the charity Harper's Bazaar dinner. Except for a very few rich women and rich men, the celebrities' costumes on the red carpet are all borrowed and have to be returned after the event.

At present, Huang Baiyou's life assistant has been suspended by the company, let alone a makeup artist to help borrow clothes, so he found the most formal clothes in his wardrobe.

"It turns out that the star-studded place in the entertainment industry is here, and the red carpet has become more interesting." Huang Baiyou murmured to himself.

After communicating with Li Maofeng for a while, there was nothing to say. Huang Baiyou took out his mobile phone. As expected, he saw a series of hot searches for pornographic entries, and even their crew occupied three of them. # Mu Yue's comic back # , # Zhou Xilin is so expensive # , # Li Maofeng red carpet # . I am afraid that many 2G surfing friends will not understand. I will explain briefly. Mu Yue is wearing a backless dress tonight, so the former The entry praised her for having a beautiful back, like the back in comics.

"When can I join them? It feels so lively." Huang Baiyou thought that it would be no problem to change to another agency and go to Jinyi Film and Television introduced by Tan Xing.

In addition, there is also a highly discussed entry # Who won on the red carpet of the opening ceremony # . There were many fans, and fans pretending to be passers-by, and black fans pretending to be fans, arguing fiercely about who lost. Whoever wins will be much more exciting than on the field.

Compared to the venue, the event site was lengthy and boring. It accommodated more than a thousand people and was divided into 22 rows. The seats were arranged in a trapezoid shape with short front and long back.

The crew of "The Road to Life" were arranged in rows 6-11 in the middle. There are film ambassadors, youth ambassadors and others in the first two rows. To put it bluntly, the organizing committee invites popular publicity stars, as well as the most popular among the nominated films. directors and actors.

There are clear distinctions in the entertainment industry, which can be seen from the seats. If you are not famous, you can sit in the back row, and it is difficult for the official camera to capture a clear face.

There was someone Huang Bai knew in the front row, Wang Lan, the vice president of Tianyu Media. As a giant in the industry, he sat in the second row.

Why is he here? Because the film invested by the company has also been nominated. It is conceivable that when he wins the award at the award ceremony, the director will definitely thank the sponsor.

To be honest, even if the audience was sitting upright, the opening ceremony was really boring. To be honest, the boring level was just a little more interesting than the leaders' meeting to make pie.

The main part includes speeches by the chairman of the organizing committee and the three ambassadors respectively, and then the lineup of this year's jury is unveiled, each of whom writes a short story of two sentences.

The opening ceremony has a heavy political component, but I don’t want to use too strong a word. It has a heavy propaganda component. The opening ceremony fully showcases Xidu’s tourism resources - the joy of ice and snow.

Moreover, the event was used to mix elements such as movies, Winter Olympics, and Hongqi Motors. Film art is closely related to the ice and snow culture of Xidu. The leaders of Xidu who stopped by also took this opportunity to talk about the preferential policies for shooting in Xidu.

I forgot to mention that the Xidu Film Festival itself was founded by the official bodies of Jilin Province and Xidu Province, and jointly with the General Administration. It was unusual that no leader spoke at the scene.

When the ceremony finally ended, there was thunderous applause. Everyone cheered, including Huang Baiyou, who clapped very hard.

"It took more than three hours. I was able to talk so well. Fortunately, I finally finished it." Huang Bai said in his heart.

The opening film "The Road to Life" will be played live, and other nominated films will be screened in ten surrounding cinemas. People who eat melons feel that the film festival is far away from them, but this is not the case.

For example, at the Xidu Film Festival, during the five days of screening, you can find the official screening theater, buy tickets for whichever film you want to see, and then check in and enter the film festival.

As for those self-media people and film critics who received invitations, they were all invited to participate in the opening ceremony or award ceremony, so ordinary people should forget about it.

Anyway, the film festival is the largest cultural and entertainment event in Xidu, so if you are willing to spend money, the equipment for the on-site screening of "The Road of Life" is also quite good.

The plot of the movie starts out very bland, telling the story of the protagonist Cheng De's life that has failed even though he has reached middle age. Cheng De himself has a very bad impression, and he still wants to take action after divorcing his ex-wife.

The key is to bully the weak and fear the strong. When Cheng De sees his ex-wife's younger brother, Cao Ge, who is the captain of the police station, he is like a mouse seeing a cat.

"You performed well." Chairman Zhang whispered, "This old man who has accomplished nothing stood up with just a few moves and a few looks."

It must be said that Zhao Jiang did not sit with the crew, but sat in the second row with old friends.

"I'm not bad." Zhao Jiang accepted the compliment and added: "But there are actors who performed quite well."

As an old friend, Chairman Zhang naturally knows that "pretty good" is the highest praise from an old friend.

"Then I want to take a closer look." Chairman Zhang said.

The turning point of the plot comes when Lu Yi, played by Huang Baiyou, appears. Because the male protagonist Cheng De sells Indian sacred oil, Lu Yi thinks that the male protagonist has a way to get generic drugs of Meglitin from India.

"The expressions and eye movements on the stage are impeccable, but the lines are even better." Chairman Zhang praised the actor who played Lu Yi.

Chairman Zhang was not the only one to say this. Huang Baiyou’s appearance conquered 60% of the audience.

Forced by life, Cheng De decided to smuggle generic meglitin. What followed was the rapid development of Shuangwen Road. Because the cheap medicine was effective, counterfeit drug groups expanded rapidly.

[What’s wrong with breaking the law to save others? Didn’t God say, if you don’t go to hell, who will? ]

I persuaded a pastor who could speak English to help negotiate, and obtained the agency rights for generic drugs in India, and it seemed to be developing in a better direction.

We all know that a film that can become the opening ceremony of a film festival cannot always be successful.

So the plot started to take a turn for the worse——

Cheap and large-volume generic drugs attracted the covetousness of another counterfeit drug dealer. After a police raid, Cheng De thought of giving up if he was caught selling counterfeit drugs.

Cheng De has an eight-year-old child, so if he wants to protect himself, he should hand over the channel of generic drugs to another counterfeit drug dealer, An Changlin.

With the money from selling counterfeit medicines, Cheng De opened a clothing factory, and his life became more and more prosperous. A year later, Lu Yi's wife came to Cheng De with tears in her eyes to ask for medicine.

Because An Changlin was greedy, he sold the medicine for 20,000 yuan. The fake medicine stall was reported and there was no medicine left. Lu Yi had many surgeries and spent all his savings. Lu Yi didn't want to be cured anymore and committed suicide without telling his family. .

When Lu Yi appeared in front of the audience again while lying on the hospital bed, many people took a breath.

The face was disfigured, there were not many hairs, and the eyes were empty and lifeless. He looked like three-quarters of his life had been lost. Some viewers were asking people around them who the actor was.

Including Wang Lan was also asking. He knew that Huang Baiyou acted in "The Road of Life", but he really didn't recognize it. Firstly, Huang Baiyou lost too much weight for the acting and was too immersed in watching the movie and didn't think much about it. Secondly, he is a vice president, so how familiar is he with the artist?

Definitely not!

"This artist will become famous after tonight." Wang Lan sighed softly.

The plot only begins to have a sense of impact——

[There is only one disease in this world, the disease of poverty. ]

[Eat an orange. ]

[40,000 yuan per bottle. I have been sick for 3 years and have been on medication for 3 years. In order to buy medicine, my house was lost and my family was ruined. Who doesn’t have a patient in their family? Can you guarantee that you will not get sick for the rest of your life? I don't want to die, I want to live. ]

[Looking at these patients, I feel sad. They cannot afford the expensive imported drugs, so they can only wait to die or even commit suicide. However, I believe it will get better and better in the future, and I hope this day can come sooner. ]

…

There were four scenes that made many viewers cry. One was Lu Yi's painful wailing while cleaning the wound. One section is about watching his wife and son who were sleeping with him commit suicide full of attachment but determination.

In the third paragraph, the sick old woman begs the police captain to stop pursuing the case. The last scene is when Cheng De is sentenced, and then all the patients who have helped come to see him off...

The plots of these two chapters are continuous, so they are not separated, the content of the two chapters.
