Huayu started as a lecturer at Beijing Film Academy

Speaking of this, Liu Yufei became unhappy: "Yang Mi is doing well now, isn't it because she acted in your movie? When you were filming "Ball Lightning", why didn't you think of hiring me?"

"Because Yang Mi's price is cheaper than yours, and since last year, she has become even more popular than you, not to mention that she has pushed down a lot of other film appointments in order to star in my movie." Gu Zhongyu wiped his mouth without politeness responded.

Starting from Yang Mi's "Palace" and Liu Shishi's "Bu Bu Jing Xin" last year, other young actresses born after 1985 also began to exert their efforts. Later, Zhao Liying was able to catch up from behind. Although their popularity soared, they did not reach the national level that Liu Yufei once had. , but it’s not far off.

"Hmph! You didn't ask me at that time, how did you know that I couldn't reduce my salary? And Yang Mi is better than me in that way? In terms of appearance and acting skills, I can't lose to her!"

Liu Yufei was very unconvinced. She thought that when she was filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Yang Mi was just a supporting character who held an umbrella for her. Unexpectedly, a few years later, in the blink of an eye, she could actually turn an old hen into a duck!

Seeing Liu Yufei's unwillingness to admit defeat, Gu Zhongyu shook his head inwardly.

In fact, when it comes to appearance, who is better between the two? Everyone has their own preferences, but when it comes to brains, Yang Mi and the sisters can definitely hang up the immortal and beat him up!

At the same age, Yang Mi is ambitious and good at dancing, and has already begun recruiting people to form his own new company; while Liu Yufei is still stupid, and she only knows how to get into the movie industry, and she will continue to hit the wall for several years. Only then did he finally look back.

"Okay, Sissi, don't be so aggressive all the time. Besides, hasn't Zhong Yu already invited you to act in a movie? I believe he won't favor one over the other, right?"

Liu Xiaoli came out to smooth things over. She saw how Sissy started getting angry when she mentioned Yang Mi, and she was worried that the young couple would quarrel again. It took them so long to finally get back together, so they didn't want to break up again.

"Mom, are you my mother or Gu Zhongyu's mother? Why are you always on his side?

Liu Yufei was very puzzled as to why her mother, who had always been doting on her, treated Gu Zhongyu as if she were her own son every time she met him, as if she was the chosen one.

Liu Xiaoli picked up a dish with chopsticks and brought it to Gu Zhongyu's bowl: "Mom, I'm not going to help with the wedding, but Zhongyu, like this, there was a bookmaker who approached Sissy a while ago, but this time it was a Hollywood blockbuster, It's called "The Legend of White Ghost: Desperate Escape". This is a script, what do you think?"

Opening the script, Gu Zhongyu wanted to vomit before reading even two pages. What a Gou Ba plot!

The story tells that during the Crusades, the warriors Jacob and Galan fled to the East to escape the shadow of war. They encountered Princess Lian and the young prince Zhao who were being hunted by the usurping brother. Then the two rescued the hunted siblings. , by the way, the white man Jacob also fell in love with the princess played by Liu Yufei.

Just like the previous "The King of Kung Fu", it is a bad movie made by forcing Chinese culture. The theme is still the adventure of the Eastern world imagined by Westerners, such as lone knights and exotic princesses.

Gu Zhongyu threw the script directly on the table: "A bad movie! It's so bad that you can't even pull your legs out. It's a Hollywood standard industrial co-production bad movie!"

"No way! The leading actors in this film are Nicolas Cage and Hayden Christensen. With such a lineup, it won't become a bad film in your opinion, right?" In the eyes of Liu Yufei, having an Oscar-winning actor like Nicolas Cage in the film is a guarantee of quality.

Nicolas Cage?

In order to pay off his debt, what kind of movie won't this guy accept?

Cage was once the most popular star in Hollywood. The success of films such as "Face/Off", "Escape", and "Prison in the Sky" allowed him to enter the US$20 million salary club in the 1990s. At that time, DiCaprio, People like Tom are only allowed to carry his shoes.

However, the financial crisis in 2008 left Cage heavily in debt. In order to pay off the debt and support his family's expenses, he began to take on movies recklessly and blindly make money, so that in recent years, almost no one has made it to the stage. , exhausted all the credibility he had accumulated over the years, and has already broken through the floor of Oscar winner level.

In a year or two, the movies he stars in will not even make it to the big screen and will be sold directly on DVD. This is simply a shame for a once top international star!

As for Christensen, that is even more unsightly. As a once popular Hollywood actor, he has acted for so many years. He is most famous for his role as Anakin Skywalker in the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy. The remaining movies After one game and another on the street, no one has paid attention to him for a long time.

These two bad movie professionals work together to make a movie together. They complement each other perfectly and elevate the style of this bad movie to a new level.

"Anyway, I can conclude that this movie will not sell well at home or abroad. In other words, no one can make this kind of co-production movie that is neither Chinese nor Western. Even Lao Mouzi can't save it. I Said.”

It seems that in a few years, Lao Mouzi will also co-produce "The Great Wall" with Matt Damon. The plot of that film is exactly the same as that of "Legend of the White Ghost". It is a foreign warrior who accidentally enters the Eastern country and is involved in a conspiracy or... During the war, he took advantage of the situation to save the world and then picked up a girl.

Shameless sexual intercourse of an old white man!

I bother!

"You mean, Sissi can't develop in Hollywood? Isn't it possible to do international co-productions?" After listening to Gu Zhongyu's analysis, Liu Xiaoli felt that there was some truth in it, but she was still unwilling to do so, so she peeled off another prawn and let it go. into Gu Zhongyu's bowl.

"A foreign old white man came to our ancient world to save us. This is the core point of the failure of "The King of Kung Fu" and "White Ghost Legend". The old white man always regards himself as the savior and feels that the Chinese dynasty should Saved by them, the whole movie is full of arrogance and prejudice against our Chinese culture. Only the audience would be crazy to like this kind of movie. It’s pure despicable!”

When the mother and daughter heard this, they somewhat understood. Liu Xiaoli asked worriedly: "Then how should Sissi plan her future life path?"

"Simple, I would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow. Asian faces are naturally shorter than others in Hollywood. Sissi must completely give up the path of Hollywood and develop in China with peace of mind."

"Abandon movies and only make TV series?" Liu Yufei asked.

Gu Zhongyu really couldn't eat anymore, so Liu Xiaoli stuffed him with another sea cucumber while he was talking, and after swallowing it reluctantly: "Of course not, why are you going all the way to the dark side? There are good movies and books that you can pick up. TV series are for attracting fans and It’s about making money, but movies are for gaining recognition and awards, and there’s no conflict.”

"Actually, you can take a look at the actresses Fan Binbin and Yang Mi, especially Fan Binbin. She has acted in quite a few movies, right? It's different from filming TV series now. We are filming "Legend of Wu Zetian" in Chang'an. The lineup of this drama It has received a lot of attention and the drama king has already booked it.”

Liu Yufei was unconvinced and said: "That's why Fan Binbin came back to film TV series because he didn't achieve any results in his film career."

"I have already won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress, the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, and the Best Actress at the Tokyo International Film Festival. What awards have you won? The Golden Eagle Goddess on the Toilet Seat?"

All of a sudden, Liu Yufei was stunned. She had never won any significant awards in so many years since her debut.

This continuous critical attack made her lose confidence.
