I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 602 600. Three arrows fired in unison

"..."

"..."

"..."

As the woman clapped her hands on the door and left, all the filmmakers' eyes were directly focused on the director.

They are afraid.

Really scared.

I was afraid that the director would say something so ridiculous as "do it all over again."

How could it happen again?

How dare you do it again?

Although Gong Er is gone, the wounds left by her last slap that hit everyone's hearts are still there.

Neither dared to speak.

We don’t even care about talking. Director, do you dare to let her come back?

Are you not afraid of death?

You should be afraid... No, you must be afraid.

But since you are afraid of death, why don't you speak?

Wang Jiawei did not speak.

Just use your hands to control the playback of the screen on the monitor.

Wearing headphones, listened to the lines of this scene, and then watched everyone's performances bit by bit.

Once again, the actor watched it.

Twice, look at that actor.

After taking in everything he took without missing any details, he finally took off his headphones.

"Mimi."

"..."

Yang Mi, who didn't know whether she had passed or not, remained silent.

It's just that the tips of his fingers are getting redder.

And congestion begins.

Logically speaking, all the caring little cotton-padded jackets must have given away warm babies at this time.

But Sun Ting didn't.

My sister won’t let me.

In today's scene, she talked little and refused to communicate with anyone other than performance-related matters unless necessary.

In order to maintain this state of mind.

This is true for Sun Ting, and it is no exception for the director.

Therefore, she responded to Wang Jiawei's words with a glance.

Then……

Everyone heard this sentence:

"I'm not very satisfied with this scene. Can you maintain this state next time?"

"...????"

Everyone was stunned.

Looking at Wang Jiawei... Even if it is the director of photography Philippe Lesu, his eyes are full of "OMG" absurdity.

Such a wonderful performance, are you still not satisfied?

Brother... we don't bring this kind of thing!

What are you doing?

What about playing tricks on others?

There is only one emotion left in everyone's heart, called absurdity.

But after Yang Mi heard this, there was no emotional change in her eyes. Instead, she simply nodded:

"able."

She answered very simply. After speaking, she blew hot air into her hand.

It looks extremely casual.

But Wang Jiawei asked another question that sounded ridiculous to others:

"Are you sure? You promise?"

Suddenly, the feeling of "director, you are taking off your pants and farting" filled everyone's hearts.

The drama is what you are not satisfied with.

You are the one who needs to be retaken.

Now that the actors are guaranteed to perform stably, why do you not believe it anymore?

Brother, are you poisonous?

But...

After Yang Mi heard this, she nodded again:

"Yes. I am Gong Er."

A "template flow" in one's own words and a "methodology" in others' words spoke the simplest and most difficult words of the experiential school.

After Wang Jiawei listened, he nodded slightly and waved to Hou Zhen:

"Azhen."

"director."

"First of all, all the Japanese flags above are made bigger. Then, in the entire waiting room, I want a feeling of iron and coal intertwined. It's too clean here, understand? Remove other people's seats and follow the instructions. The layout of the ancient residence only left a few benches..."

No longer satisfied with the changes in light and shadow in the corridor.

After seeing the actor's performance, he gained a greater vision and inspiration and began to splash ink into the layout of his film.

Together with Hou Zhen, art director, lighting engineer, etc.

A group of people just listened to him for nearly 20 minutes. Each assistant wrote down a page full of the director's requirements before giving up.

Then……

"Everyone, please call it a day and take a break. You should seize the time to transform."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Fine……

Whatever the director says, let’s do it.

But this time everyone understood it.

This scene needs to be reshot, and it has nothing to do with Yang Mi.

It can't be said that there wasn't... on the contrary, it was because she performed so well that the director felt that the set was too hasty and had to redo it to suit her.

That makes it easier to understand.

Looking at Yang Mi who was sitting on the chair with her eyes closed and out of character, recalling the performance just now, everyone smashed their mouths...

So enjoyable.

…

"Mimi."

"Hey, senior brother, what's wrong?"

Without the influence of Gong Er, Yang Mi once again transformed into the image of a sweet girl who brought disaster to the country and the people.

"Are you going back now?"

"Yes. What?"

Looking at Xu Haofeng approaching, Yang Mi stood up.

Gong Er just now didn't seem to have any impact on her.

"I have a script here. Can you take it back and read it?"

"Well, okay."

Yang Mi took the script and looked down at the title:

"Traces of Japanese Pirates"

She was stunned and looked up at Xu Haofeng:

"Are you planning to ask me to act?"

Hearing this, Xu Haofeng smiled and shook his head:

"I used to think that you would be overqualified to play the female role in this film. Take a look first. If you think the quality is good, I want you to pass it over to Mr. Yu to see if Mr. Yu is interested."

"Yeah, okay."

Yang Mi directly handed the script to Sun Ting:

"Then I will send it directly to Master when I go back."

"Well……"

After Xu Haofeng was stunned for a moment, he quickly added:

"Then take a look too."

Hearing this, Yang Mi glanced at him subconsciously, seeming to understand something, and nodded:

"OK."

Soon, after taking off her makeup, she said goodbye to the crew and got into the car with the facial mask on.

"Find a place to make a copy of the script and deliver it to you, Brother Xu, by courier."

"OK."

Sun Ting responded, glanced at Sister Mi through the rearview mirror, who had her eyes closed to relax, thought for a moment, and asked:

"Sister, Director Xu asked you to take a look...are you trying to attract investment?"

"should be."

Yang Mi's eyes were half-squinted. Because of the facial mask, her mouth seemed tense when she spoke, and her voice was a little weird.

"Make two copies, send one to your brother Xu, one to Master, and one for us to read ourselves."

"Uh-huh."

Sun Ting responded and drove to the villa prepared by Teacher Benshan.

After walking for a while, she heard a slight snoring behind her.

Turning around, Yang Mi seemed to have fallen asleep.

She silently lowered her speed and set her phone to silent.

…

"What you sent me was Lao Xu's script?"

Xu Xin asked, looking at the stack of manuscripts he had just taken out of the express bag.

"right."

There was a lot of noise over there at Yang Mi.

"I sent a copy to you and Master, please take a look."

"...Old Xu wants to ask me to guide you?"

"Hmm... I think... probably not. He probably wants to direct it himself."

"Then why did you send me here?"

"Let's see if it's worth the investment."

"..."

Hearing this, Xu Xin simply rolled his eyes:

"Sister, do you think I'm very idle? I'm finishing "33 Days" here. I'm very busy, okay?"

"You should take a look at it when you have time."

"Why don't you look?"

"I'm busy too. The Northeast is all about Gong Er's drama. Do you think I'm idle?"

"That's... okay. I'll finish here in two or three days at most, and then I'll go to the Northeast to find you."

"Okay, then remember to wear more clothes, it's getting cold here."

"Yeah. Hang up."

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the "Traces of the Japanese Pirates" in his hand, but unconsciously thought about "The Master" that Lao Xu had shown him before.

He quite liked that short story.

I just don’t know what this script is like.

But he couldn't care less about it for now.

There will be a blind date event soon, and the sponsor Baihe.com will place an advertisement.

"Here, put it away and don't leak it."

After giving the script to Su Meng, he went directly to prepare for filming.

"Okay... Then, Brother Xu, can I put it in the storage compartment of the car?"

"okay."

After receiving Brother Xu's instructions, Su Meng got up and walked out with the car keys.

When I arrived at the Volvo, I put the script directly into the co-pilot's storage compartment, and I felt relieved.

Then Xu Xin put the matter behind him.

No. 28.

Tokyo Film Festival opens.

As early as the 26th, West Film Studio had already brought the crew of "The Piano of Steel" to Tokyo.

As the only two films selected this year, "The Piano" and "Guanyin Mountain" have received a lot of attention.

In other words, both movies took advantage of Xi Film Studio.

This year's Western Film Studio still has no works released.

In other words, from their series of actions this year, anyone with a discerning eye can see that they pay more attention to cultivating the future than blindly expanding once they succeed.

To put it bluntly, there is now a person in the factory who can lay golden eggs, and they can only pick up the feathers of Xu Xin, and they are not in a hurry to speed up.

Therefore, their main promotion of movies this year is still on Xu Xin.

And Xu Xin did not disappoint them.

"The Hawthorn Tree" won the Best Director Award in Venice and became a friend of Italian grandmothers.

Even if the movie is not released, the popularity is enough.

But with Xu Xin, they didn't rush to launch other movies and turned around directly to start competing for talents.

Although they only started working on it this year... but if this trend continues, within three to five years, their works may be in full bloom.

There is no way, who let Xu Xin do it just because it is so awesome.

Pushing him out, what he gave back to Xiying Studio is simply immeasurable.

Anything that has anything to do with him seems to be eligible to catch everyone's attention.

For example, this "Steel Piano".

After the film was shortlisted, it was originally a film with only a small investment from Liao Film Studio. After it was revealed that the post-production company was Xi Film Studio and that "Director Xu personally served as the post-production producer", "The Piano of Steel" has not yet entered the film market. Official promotion, but a small number of people on the Internet have begun to look forward to it.

Currently, none of the films related to Director Xu are bad.

With this golden body, although the popularity of "Steel Piano" is not yet a big hit, it at least has a small-scale reputation.

Mainly concentrated in the niche class who have a certain aesthetic ability in movies.

After learning that Zhang Meng was the director of "Blessed Ears", the cooperation between the two parties made this film have a wider audience.

Don't worry about whether you really like movies or you just like to pretend to be * with some movie topics.

Gotta admit it.

When elements such as Xiying Studio, Xu Xin, "Blessed Ears" and Qin Hailu come together, "The Piano" is already qualified to be popular.

At the same time, as the only Chinese-language film at the Tokyo Film Festival, it has a lot of topics.

Although not as much as the other one...

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Who told the protagonist of the second movie to be called Liang Bingning?

As a director, it is not a secret that Li Yu loves Liang Binning more than anyone else.

After all, she openly said on the show, "Liang Binning is the most perfect heroine in my mind."

The preference is understandable.

And who does Liang Binning's current career thrive on?

It cannot be said that it all depends on Xiying Studio.

But without Xiying Studio, she would never have gone so smoothly.

After Xu Xin won her the Best Actress Award for one of her dramas and established her status, her career continued to rise.

Last year, he was in Times Square in New York, dressed in blue and white, and became a member of the national propaganda film.

There were no activities of Xiying Film Studio in the middle, even if I beat them to death, they wouldn’t believe it.

Not to mention the city spokesperson who is "the most beautiful woman in the Tang Palace".

You're a Shandong girl, how can you be the spokesperson for the city that never sleeps?

Without the support of Xiying Studio, it would be nothing more than wishful thinking.

Therefore, after figuring out the basis of the two films, many old people in the industry suddenly vaguely felt as if they had returned to the last century from these two films selected for the Tokyo Film Festival.

It was the most prosperous time of the West Film Studio in the last world.

Venice and Tokyo are both in the top nine.

Xu Xin won the Best Director in Venice.

If only these two films could win some honors in Tokyo...

Three arrows fired in unison?

No, no, no, it's too exaggerated, too unrealistic.

What do you think the Nine Majors are? Is this your supermarket? Is getting the prize the same as purchasing goods?

But think about it this way...

If that's the case...

That……

Is the status of Xiying Studio going back to its peak?

Although times have changed now, the days when the Big Six dominated the sky with one hand are gone forever.

But business is business and art is art.

Xiying Film Studio itself was not a commercial factory.

If we could really keep up with the old factories in terms of art...

Thinking of this, many people's hearts suddenly froze.

Xiying Studio... is a state-owned factory.

If film artistry can return to its previous position, then for the current film and television industry...

What does it mean?

this……

…

("The Golden Piano" and "Guanyin Mountain" received great acclaim at the Tokyo Film Festival!)

Similar news spread back to China on the 29th.

It also comes with a score from the special section of the IMDB Tokyo Film Festival in Japan.

"Gang Piano" and "Guanyin Mountain" occupy the fifth and second positions in the main competition unit list with scores of 8.8 and 9.0 respectively.

Rave reviews!

These news directly pushed the popularity of the two movies to the next level.

However, neither of these two films received as much news as "The Hawthorn Tree".

As a surprise film in the special screening section, "The Hawthorn Tree" surpassed Batman's self-directed film "City" and the film festival's opening film "The Social Network", with a favorable rating of 94%, becoming the 20th The film with the highest praise on the first day of the special screening section of the three Tokyo Film Festival.

The country of Japan once again showed their "personality" side.

After "City" and "The Social Network" were previewed in the United States, some media and professional film critics have already made conclusions.

Although he is an opponent.

But the overall tone is the same.

"These are two films that are worthy of Oscars."

Especially "The Social Network" is a movie based on Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Savarin, the founders of FACEBOOK, the world's largest social networking site outside China.

It is generally believed by the media in the United States that he must be one of the winners of next year's Oscars.

But these two "Hollywood blockbusters" were ignored at the Tokyo Film Festival.

The positive ratings are only 77 and 65.

The high one is "The Social Network", and the low one is "City Robbers", which is evaluated by Japanese movie fans as "the old-fashioned tough guy beauty story".

On the list of favorable reviews for special screenings, "Love at the Hawthorn Tree" ranked first.

Among the comments on "Hawthorn Tree Love", the most popular comment was: "Chinese actor Liu Yifei is so beautiful."

The comments with the most replies are:

"That hateful guy Xu Xin, he clearly has Miss Qingyi! Hurry up and commit seppuku, Yelang!"

Ranking second is the Hollywood "blockbuster" "Despicable Me."

The most popular comment was: "Minions, hurry up and do something for me!"

look.

Hollywood blockbusters may not work that well.

But cartoons are definitely good.

As a result, "Steel Piano", "Guanyin Mountain", and "Love at the Hawthorn Tree", which was clearly not qualified to compete but dominated the list, became the most beautiful scenery on the 28th, the first day of the Tokyo Film Festival.

After seeing the feedback from Japanese people, the Japanese release date of "Hawthorn Tree" has finally been set.

February 14, 2011.

Landing in Japan on Valentine's Day.

The distributor, Toho Pictures, has already started to connect with West Film Studio for the promotional schedule of Xu Xin, Liu Yifei, and Lin Xingxin.

Xu Xin never dreamed that he would have to go abroad to work during the Chinese New Year...

Maybe I can't even break through at home, so I have to go to Japan to promote.

But... Anyway.

With the holding of the Tokyo Film Festival, more and more moviegoers have received favorable comments after watching these three Western Film Studio works. It is like a tide, spreading the news to the country one after another. .

Today, "The Piano of Steel" was packed with people.

Tomorrow there will be news like "Liang Binning endorsed XX and it is sold out in Japan".

There will be more news the day after tomorrow, something like "Japanese people praise Liu Yifei as a stunning beauty rarely seen in four thousand years in China"...

These news... In the words of cross talk, they are like dog urine and moss after the rain, whizzing out.

It made "Hawthorn Tree Love", which had not yet entered the promotion period, become popular again.

But for Xu Xin, these are not big things.

He is busy starting "33 Days of Love" which is entering its final phase.

Busy everyday.

Throughout the first half of the Tokyo Film Festival, he was almost completely deaf to what was happening outside the window.

Work hard to make progress.

Finally, on the night of the 1st, he finished all the feature films of "33 Days".

But that doesn't mean the end of the movie.

On the morning of the 2nd, Yanjing and Sanlitun.

Jay Chou and Lang Lang put on their makeup and came to Xu Xin.

And standing next to them were Gong Xinliang and Liu Zhishi.

Xu Xin looked at the four of them and pointed:

"you."

Jay Chou: "..."

"you."

Gong Xinliang: "..."

"You two, the young man and woman in the cafe broke up. Director Xue, tell them a story."

Then, Xu Xin turned to look at Liu Zhishi:

"You and Lao Lang, you two will be at the intersection in a moment... I will shoot you two first, and then stop speeding. Let's not affect the normal traffic..."

After hearing what he said, Liu Zhishi had no objection.

Lang Lang was just a little confused:

"I thought it was us two acting..."

Although he didn't mention a surname, Xu Xin knew who he was talking about.

So he rolled his eyes:

"How unlucky. So stagger, wheel..."

"ah?"

Jay Chou, who had just arrived from Xi'an, responded.

"Put on your mask."

"Oh, okay."

Jay Chou nodded quickly and pulled up the mask.

Although it is morning here in Sanlitun, there are still many people. If exposed... it would be very troublesome.

"Okay, let's get ready and start shooting. Shishi, just say one word. After the camera turns around you two, you say to Lao Lang: Let's break up. I'm sorry, you are a good person."

"puff……"

When she heard her line, Liu Zhishi burst out laughing.

Although he was roped in as a guest star... he didn't have many roles. But she never dreamed that her good guy card would be given to Teacher Lang Lang.

Lang Lang also looked strange, looked at Xu Xin and said:

"What about my lines?"

"When you open your mouth, it smells like dirt. What lines do you want?"

Xu Xin's eyes were filled with disgust.

"Why do you think cats and dogs all have their own lines?"

"..."

Lang Lang's face looked a little ugly.

Point in one direction:

"You said I won't be stubborn with you. This kind of guy can act in a play. Why don't I have any lines?"

"Speak up and don't curse! What do you mean by this kind of thing!? I am an important supporting role, much better than you who are just a walk-on."

Wang Sicong was not happy anymore.

But Lang Lang shrugged indifferently:

"That's right, you are definitely better than me. At least I didn't put a watch on my face to act."

"!"

The eldest young master was instantly hit with a pain point and was about to jump and curse.

Xu Xin said with some guilt:

"Okay, okay, hurry up and go to your station. Others are getting ready. Let's finish filming quickly and wrap it up!"

As he spoke, he looked down at the Richard Mille on his wrist.

"It's almost 10 o'clock, hurry up!"

then……

As the crowd watched with mobile phones, Liu Zhishi stood in the sidewalk waiting area at the intersection and said to Lang Lang with his eyes open:

"let's break up."

"sorry."

"You are a good person."

"..."

Lang Lang didn't say anything. He waited for five or six seconds, and after confirming that Xu Xin had finished shooting, he suddenly cupped his fists and handed over his hands:

"Hey, thank you for letting me go."

"Pfft...hahahahahaha..."

The blind sister who made a cameo burst out laughing again.

Xu Xin was also happy.

The crew and the people watching on both sides of the road were all having fun.

After all, this line is quite interesting.

But who would have thought that the two of them were obviously filming, but somehow, during lunch, the news made it to the news:

"Liu Zhishi and Lang Lang broke up in the street! Live broadcast!"

This tidbit of news came out immediately.

It makes people dumbfounded.

But...it doesn't matter anymore.

The cameras and other things in the photos are all there. If anyone really believes this kind of news... then it's better not to read the news if you have the intelligence.

"Love Is Not Blind" has been completed.
