China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

After winning the Golden Lion, "Lust, Caution" became a hit in the international film industry.

In the field of commercial films, Lu Ping An Film's journey is equally smooth.

On the 9th, the Berlin premiere of "Kung Fu Panda" was a complete success.

As of today, "Kung Fu Panda" has been released in many places overseas. The earliest one has been released for three weeks. The total global box office has reached 160 million US dollars, which is already a record for Chinese-language movies.

This also shows that at the international level, "Kung Fu Panda" is actually still the most popular movie at the moment.

But not many people in China care about it. The reason is that "Lust, Caution" is too popular.

Lu Ping'an didn't care too much. There was no need to show off his achievements now, so as not to be said to be jealous of Li An and to have a small belly.

And when the number gets bigger and bigger, even if he wants to keep a low profile, the media will naturally come to report it.

After the trip to Berlin, I returned home safely.

The next day he came to Nortel to attend the opening ceremony.

There are many familiar faces among the freshmen at Nortel this year, including Zhang Ruoyun, Shuangzi, Jingtian, Kan Qingzi, etc.

Starlight is not bad.

But Lu Pingan was not interested in taking a look, reported the matter, held a meeting, and then went on to fish in the Olympic director team.

On the 11th, Lu Pingan went to Zhongxi Theater again.

The Chinese Opera is located in Nanluogu Lane, which is actually not far from his courtyard house located in Dashizuo Hutong. The straight-line distance is less than 1.5 kilometers.

With such a small distance, Lu Ping'an has not been there much in several years, which is indeed strange when you think about it.

Not to mention that I have never been to Zhongxi Opera, even around the nearby Shichahai area, Lu Pingping has not had a good time.

So this time I had plenty of time and I rarely had time to spare, so I simply rode there with Ning Hao and others who came to meet up.

We walked all the way through various alleys and visited Shichahai.

Tourists and local indigenous people mixed with each other along the way.

Coupled with the temperature that is no longer very overbearing after entering September.

It's quiet and leisurely with a bit of a commercial atmosphere.

Turn into Nanluogu Lane and enter East Mianmian Hutong.

Pass by Burger King No. 7 and walk a few dozen meters further.

The famous south gate of the old campus of China National Opera is here in a blink of an eye.

At this time, there were already many teachers, students and reporters waiting at the entrance of the Central Theater.

Someone was discussing in a low voice there:

"What kind of car will the road guide bring?"

"I heard that the A6 will remain unchanged for thousands of years."

"It's so low-key."

"Do you think Director Lu will be casting the cast today?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard of any new projects he has."

"Isn't it Wonderful Night 2?"

"That's right, then I guess I should be able to cast the cast. If you're brave, I'll ask you later."

"It's possible that it's already been decided."

During the discussion, someone pointed to the alley ahead and said, "Here comes the road guide!"

Then everyone looked over and saw Lu Ping'an and others riding on a big pole.

Everyone looked surprised, and then a leader quickly came forward to greet him.

"Dr. Lu, why didn't you drive here? If I had known you were riding a bicycle, we would have sent someone to pick you up."

Leaders who engage in liaison are very good at talking.

Lu Ping'an was also very friendly: "It's close, let's take a look at the scenery."

"So artistic!"

The breeze was blowing, and the person who said this was another handsome guy and a director.

Several female students became nymphomaniacs on the spot.

After a brief exchange of greetings, we entered the campus.

The school is really small and you can see it all at a glance. Just a few steps after everyone enters the gate is the administration building.

Jian Jian took a photo with everyone, drank tea, and sat for a while, and then everyone moved to the lecture hall.

Then, in front of a crowd of teachers, students and flashing lights, he received the "honorary doctorate" of the directing department.

Next, I will say two sentences, which were agreed upon earlier.

At this time, the lecture hall was full of people, but the total number of people was not large, probably around 300 to 400 people.

But this is also the entire main force of the Chinese drama.

At a glance, the stars are indeed much brighter than Nortel, and there are a lot of future stars.

Tong Yaya, Chen Xiao, Zhang Jianing, Song Yi, Wei Daxun, Mao Xiaotong, Wang Ziwen, Ren Suxi, oh, and Papi Jiang.

These are current students, as well as former students who took advantage of the opportunity to return to campus today to visit.

Chen Hao, Li Guangjie, Wen Zhang, Tang Yan, Bai Baihe, Zhang Li, Yang Shuo.

I don’t know what Nortel did.

Although Lu Ping'an has taken such good care of her over the years, there are still not many star talents in the Chinese drama industry.

Lu Pingan on the stage was performing face recognition without saying anything. The teachers and students in the audience just watched Lu Pingan glance from left to right in silence.

There's actually something special about this opening.

But no one felt anything inappropriate or impatient.

In fact, everyone is taking advantage of this opportunity to see what Director Lu Da looks like in real life.

Then I was looking forward to whether Director Lu would see something, and whether he would appoint some street girls or street boys.

Soon, Lu Ping'an spoke: "Director Nortel likes to use Chinese actors. It seems to make sense."

Everyone in the audience smiled knowingly, and then began to applaud.

Lucky for you.

Everyone is happy.

Lu Ping'an continued: "Then let's carry forward Nortel's tradition and send a greeting gift. If you are a director, raise your hand."

After a slight commotion, a dozen people raised their hands.

Lu Ping'an continued: "If you are willing, come and intern on my crew."

All the students in the directing department were completely excited.

Although I don’t know which crew it is from, how can it be worse than Lu Ping’an’s crew?

Maybe it’s a Hollywood crew!

At this time, the other acting students were jealous, but they didn't wait for the bold acting students to ask, "Where are the acting students?"

Lu Ping'an then added: "There are also people from the acting department, so we'll get the rain and dew."

Everyone laughed.

Lu Ping'an continued: "School students are given priority. Non-school students should go and borrow their student ID cards as soon as possible."

After finishing speaking, he said to Principal Xu in the audience: "Do you mind if the principal gives you the green light?"

Of course Principal Xu didn't mind and responded loudly, "No problem."

The famous actors who came to support us also became excited.

It's actually hard to say who will be used in the end, but this is an opening.

By opening this opportunity and getting to know Lu Ping'an, there will be one more opportunity for everyone in the future.

But for Lu Ping'an, it was nothing important.

Anyway, future projects will involve cooperating with various actors on the market, but now the format has been changed, which is good for myself and the Chinese drama.

With a good start, the rest is easy.

The so-called two sentences are actually more questions and answers.

Everyone has been curious about Lu Ping An for a long time.

So there are all kinds of problems.

The more general ones asked about how to become famous and some movie-related questions.

To go more in-depth, ask about actors and overall market prospects, how to plan their careers, and the differences between Chinese and American film and television dramas.

The more peculiar ones include asking Lu Pingping personal questions, plans for his next movie, etc.

The questions came one after another, very enthusiastically.

Lu Ping'an answered flexibly, and the "speak a few words" originally scheduled for one hour quickly stretched to nearly two hours.

Finally, under the dissuasion of the school leaders, the students' enthusiasm was suppressed, the lecture hall was dismissed immediately, and auditions soon began.

When it comes to giving a meeting gift, it must be given.

And the first meeting gift is also very important, it is "Wonderful Night 2".

"Wonderful Night 1" took in more than 400 million at the box office, setting a record that no other director has broken so far, except Lu Ping'an himself.

In addition, the American version of "Wonderful Night 1" also achieved excellent results.

With two Chinese and American films as the basis, the IP "Wonderful Night" has already attracted more than just domestic attention.

Many foreigners are waiting for the second part after watching the American version of "Wonderful Night 1".

This also gives "Wonderful Night 2" an extra layer of aura.

Therefore, people who know the industry know that this film has achieved international status since its release.

Of course, even in the future, it will still not achieve much success abroad like "Wonderful Night 1".

Just in China, it can still gain a lot of attention.

Being able to participate in the show is a qualification.

This is especially true for the vast majority of actors on the scene who are basically unknown.

What's more, Lu Ping'an also said that several important roles will be left this time.

If it is not important, I will try my best to retain the highlight lens.

They are still good words, but at least half of them are deceptive.

But the students couldn't help but became even more excited.

In fact, everyone knows that whether an actor can be popular or not depends on the actor's own luck.

Sometimes it only takes a few seconds to become popular, and sometimes the star has been starring for more than ten years and no such person has been found.

I don’t know if my luck is good or not, but no matter what, let’s talk about it first.

Then soon, Lu Ping'an said the requirements of the first role:

"Those who can dance will audition first."

Dong Xuan, who followed as a consultant, curled his lips slightly.

Then when Tong Yaya came in, she seemed to see herself many years ago. (End of Chapter)
