Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

"Have you not noticed that the judges of the Golden Rooster Awards are either you who are in dramas or from Yandian?" Yu Dongqing's words are meaningful.

Meili was silent.

In fact, everyone in the industry knows an unspoken rule. The "academic" judges of the two major majors of Yan Dian and Chinese Drama are composed of the same origin. They form separate groups and promote newcomers. This is also a long-standing practice.

Seeing that Mingliang was silent, Yu Dongqing smiled, put his arm around the girl's shoulders and walked slowly towards the hotel.

This time and space is like this, so why is that time and space not the same?

The background discrimination in the film industry is so obvious. The Chinese Opera/Yandian Acting Department is a real academic class, similar to the "Qingbei" for ordinary people. He is from the Department of Chinese Opera/Nortel, and the theater is a "quasi-major course", similar to the "985" for ordinary people.

Others are "non-science classes"...

Otherwise, why do new generation actors like Wu Jing, Xu Zheng, Shen Teng and Wang Baoqiang never win the Golden Rooster Award?

For example, Wu Jing was nominated for the Golden Rooster Best Actor for the first time at the age of 48 with "Changjin Lake", but in the end he was just a supporting actor. The rest of "Wolf Warriors 1/2", "The Wandering Earth", "The Climber" and "One Second" all received zero nominations. .

Needless to say, each one is worse than the other.

But it doesn't matter to Yu Dongqing.

As long as the audience likes to watch it.

The film finally completed all shooting tasks on the 25th of the twelfth lunar month and was successfully completed. The next step is post-editing.

The crew disbanded on the spot and hurried back after having a meal, each one eager to return home.

When we got back, we still rushed to Guilin to catch a plane. Li Wan and Zhang Yang went back together.

Li Wang just rushed back from Yanjing. In fact, his main task was to contact the post-production company. This film requires a lot of special effects in post-production, so it cannot be produced by a small company like "The Tuner". Basically, Yu Dongqing Get your hands dirty.

Of course, I attended a rather popular awards ceremony.

We hurried back to Gongcheng, finished the filming and then returned to Yanjing together.

The three of them were still sitting in a row.

On the plane, Li Wan was ready to complain about the awarding of the Golden Rooster Awards, but was stopped by Yu Dongqing.

"Don't talk about that, it's not interesting."

Li Wan thought Yu Dongqing was unhappy because he didn't win the award, so he changed the topic.

"Holly, have you seen the movie trailer for this spring's release?" Li Wan asked.

"Look, there are no American blockbusters introduced during the Spring Festival this year, and Hong Kong Films didn't join in the fun. It's all mainland films." Yu Dongqing replied.

"Yes. In terms of big productions, they are Lu Yongru's "Heaven Slaying the Dragon" and Liu Shaohua's "Swordsman". Some people predict that the box office champions during the Spring Festival will be from these two movies.

"I can't say much about "The Heaven Sword and the Dragon", but Liu Shaohua's "Swordsman" was definitely a bad movie." Zhang Yang interjected and said with a smile.

Looking at the slightly surprised looks of the two people, Zhang Yang replied: "Based on the "Monster War" he filmed last year, what kind of nonsense did he film? I don't know what the boss of Jiachuang was thinking. Why are you looking for such a director?”

"Hey, you're wrong, Zhang Yang. I heard that he is trying his best this time and is preparing to make a comeback. I heard that he has signed a gambling agreement with Jiachuang."

"Betting agreement?"

"Yes! It is said that the box office of this film must exceed 1.3 billion. If the target cannot be achieved, Liu Shaohua will need to make up the difference with cash."

"1.3 billion? According to me, the investment for this film is 200 million. Although there are no American blockbusters during the Spring Festival this year, it is still quite difficult to achieve the goal."

"It depends on the box office performance of Lu Yongru's "The Devil's War"? The Spring Festival period is basically the ultimate PK between these two martial arts films." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

In fact, needless to say, Yu Dongqing said that these two films have become very popular on the Internet. From the comparison of the directors to the leading actors, to the pre-sale rankings of ticket purchase websites such as Maoyan, they are all entertainment news topics.

Fans of both companies waved their own flags and shouted, inevitably getting into wars of words, and the two teams also went non-stop to major cities for road shows.

Held media meetings and released trailers. Everything was very busy.

Guangzhou, Tianhe CBD International Cinema.

Liu Shaohua is leading the creative team to hold a roadshow promotion event in the theater. Media reporters, fans and some viewers have just watched "The Swordsman". The director and starring actors discussed the storyline, creative concepts, and communicated and interacted with the audience.

Liu Shaohua is currently conducting a Q\u0026A with media reporters.

Liu Shaohua is in his early forties, wearing a black casual suit and looking energetic.

"Director Liu, you are a reporter from Huangdu Entertainment. I just watched the video you shot and it was quite shocking."

"Thank you." Liu Shaojun replied with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the female reporter changed the topic: "There are two martial arts films released during the Spring Festival. In addition to your film, there is also "The Heaven Sword and the Dragon" produced by Director Lu. What do you think of this?"

Liu Shaohua knew that the reporter in front of him was from Huangdu Entertainment, and that he and Huangdu Film and Television were brothers. How could he talk nonsense?

So he thought for a moment: "Director Lu is my senior, and I respect him very much, but I don't think my film "Swordsman" will lose to him at the box office."

"It is said that Director Yu is also actively preparing to shoot a martial arts movie called "The Swordsman" which has been completed. What do you think about this?"

Liu Shaohua paused and suddenly said something.

"Who is Director Yu? I'm not familiar with him."

"Who is Director Yu? I'm not familiar with him."

This sentence immediately went viral, causing an uproar on the Internet and quickly became a hot search topic.

Fans of Yu Dongqing scolded Liu Shaohua for being arrogant, not to mention that Yu Dongqing has made great achievements in the music industry and is a boss-level figure.

In the film industry, last year's "The Tuner" was a box office hit and was nominated for several Golden Rooster Awards. Ye Xiaomin won the title of Best Actress for her performance as the heroine in the play. You are so brazen that you are not familiar with it?

Of course, some netizens support Liu Shaohua. How many days has Yu Dongqing been in the film industry? If you say you're not familiar with it, you're not familiar with it. There's no need to flatter you.

Besides, Ye Xiaomin won the Best Actress, which only shows that her performance is good.

Why don't you, Yu Dongqing, win Best Director and Best Screenplay because you are so awesome?

Just running with you.

But Yu Dongqing didn't pay attention to this. He was preparing gifts for returning home.

It’s another car full of cars, all prepared by Mingliang of course.

After returning to Yanjing, Yu Dongqing went to her mother-in-law's house in Houhai and met her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Meili had already explained the situation to her parents on the phone, and explained it in detail when she got home. Ming Hanwen and Liu Huiyan were helpless.

Everyone knew what the youngest daughter was thinking, especially after Luo Yun left without saying goodbye, Mei Mingli did not hide her love for Yu Dongqing.

Forget it, I already know the basics anyway. He is his son-in-law, so he can continue to be his son-in-law.

Therefore, after Yu Dongqing met her father-in-law and mother-in-law, she didn't encounter many difficulties. She just said that since Mei Mei likes you, you should live a good life.

Go back and discuss with your parents to get the wedding done as soon as possible so that your parents will not miss you.

Everyone is happy.

Of course, Yu Tongtong was still happy.

The two slept on the same bed at night, and the little girl secretly asked Meimei: "Aunt, should I call you mom from now on, or should I continue to call you aunt?"
