Millennium director

"Cough, cough, cough, cough."

Li Xuejian, who had his hands in his sleeves, took his hands out of his sleeves, covered his mouth and nose, and coughed hard several times.

Wu Yuan, who heard the coughing sound, quickly stuck his head out and asked: "Teacher Xuejian, are you okay?"

"If it's too cold, just add another layer of clothing."

Li Xuejian shook his head and waved his hands, refusing again and again: "It doesn't matter, just try it like this."

Today is November 6th.

After several months of preparation, the movie "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die" has entered the countdown to its launch.

Li Xuejian, the absolute leading actor, has already joined the cast.

However, the filming of the movie has not started yet, and Wu Yuan is still leading the crew to visit the scene.

Today he took the crew and Li Xuejian to a pre-selected old community in the XC District of Beijing for a trial scene.

The original film of this film is a Swedish film, and the background has a strong Nordic style.

Unless Wu Yuan wanted to directly make a foreign language film, he definitely couldn't copy it directly.

Now the script in his hand has been greatly changed. The Nordic community style has been completely changed into a very capital style.

The small community composed of small villas in the original film was changed into a Tongzilou community with Chinese characteristics.

Many residents in the building have moved out. Tongzilou, which was very lively in the 1980s and 1990s, now has only three or five families living on one floor.

Li Wen, played by Li Xuejian, lives alone on the third floor.

In the plot of the movie, the story begins when Li Wen commits suicide for the first time and a new neighbor moves in next door.

The actors who play the two neighbors are also familiar faces. The male host is Fan Wei, the hostess is Song Dandan, and their children have found the three little guys from "Family with Children" to act together.

It just so happened that two older children plus a younger child fit the setting in Wu Yuan's script.

Wu Yuan had just discussed with Li Xuejian a few words about the layout of the tube tower and how it should be performed at that time. Yang Niao took the initiative to walk to Wu Yuan with Zhang Yishan and You Haoran and greeted him.

Wu Yuan and Yang Niao are quite familiar with each other as children. When she was 10 years old, she starred in "Your Name" and played sisters with Liu Yifei.

However, it is not true at all that women will undergo a major transformation.

This time I saw little girl Yang Niao again. She had grown into a fully grown girl.

Yang Niao, who will be 16 years old in the new year, is not only over 165cm tall, but his personality has also become much more restrained. He is not as afraid of tigers as a newborn calf when he was a child.

When facing Wu Yuan, she no longer said "director brother" like she did when she was a child, but bowed respectfully and nervously and called "director Wu".

This made Wu Yuan feel a little uncomfortable and sad.

The cute and cheerful little girl was gone, replaced by an actress who was no different from other actors in the industry.

Zhang Yishan, who came with her and looked "familiar", also had an awkward look on his face and bent down to greet Wu Yuan respectfully.

Only You Haoran, who is only 11 years old this year, still retains a bit of the innocence of a child. He has a smiling face and is not nervous at all when facing Wu Yuan.

With some emotion, he stretched out his hand and rubbed You Haoran's head. Wu Yuan smiled and said to Yang Niao, "Niao, why are you so polite?"

"Didn't you always call me director brother before? Why are you so unfamiliar with me now?"

Yang Niiao held his hands behind his back and kneaded them, with a stiff smile on his face, and said cautiously: "I was young and ignorant before."

"It's better to call you Director Wu. Everyone on the crew calls you that. It's not easy for me to be special."

Wu Yuan frowned slightly, when did this child learn the tact of these adults.

Just when she was about to say a few words to her, Song Dandan, who had finished greeting Fan Wei, walked over quickly, stepped in front of Yang Niiao, and grabbed Wu Yuan's hand.

"Oh, Director Wu, I finally see you."

"I have admired your name for a long time!"

Giving a thumbs up, Song Dandan said somewhat exaggeratedly: "There are so many directors in China, but you are the only one who can make foreign films and work in Hollywood, you are so awesome!"

"Hmm, I'm honored to finally be able to film your movie this time."

Facing such enthusiastic Song Dandan, Wu Yuan could only smile and said: "Teacher Song Dandan's acting skills are also very good everywhere. From sitcoms to sketches to dramas, you can do it all at your fingertips."

Originally, Wu Yuan thought that the conversation between them would end with mutual compliments.

Unexpectedly, Song Dandan suddenly pulled Yang Niao over and said happily to Wu Yuan: "Niao is so lucky. When he was ten years old, he acted in Director Wu's movie. Now he can actually do it again." There is an opportunity to cooperate with Director Wu.”

"When I first met this kid Niao, I was curious about how this kid could be an actor if he was so ugly."

"Looking at it now, Director Wu, you must have a good eye. You can recognize talents with a keen eye."

Although Song Dandan was praising Wu Yuan, she was also praising Yang Niao.

But Wu Yuan clearly saw that after Song Dandan said this, Yang Niao'o's expression immediately dimmed.

Who wants to hear a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old being called ugly?

Especially a young girl like Yang Niao who has entered the entertainment industry, pays great attention to this aspect of evaluation.

Wu Yuan seems to have caught the reason for Yang Niao's drastic change in personality.

Her inferiority complex and caution probably only arose during the filming of "Family with Children".

To be fair, although Yang Niao is not one of the top beauties, she is certainly not ugly. Even in a place like the entertainment industry where beauties are abundant, she can still be regarded as a little beauty.

As a result, in Song Dandan's words, she became an ugly girl. I don't know why she can earn a living as an actress.

Under the "blow" of these words, it is not surprising that Yang Niao became inferior and cautious.

How much psychological endurance can the little girl have?

If Wu Yuan remembers correctly, all the other actors in "Family with Children 3" returned to the original cast, but she was replaced.

What a miserable word to describe.

Sighing in his heart, Wu Yuan shook his head and interrupted Song Dandan: "I think Naiao is quite beautiful."

"It was because she was the prettiest among the young actors who came to audition that I chose her to play Yotsuba."

“The final performance was also very good.”

Yang Niiao raised his head suddenly and looked at Wu Yuan in disbelief.

Was it because of this that she was chosen to play "Your Name"?

After all these years, Yang Niao still doesn't know why he was able to star in "Your Name". He has always regarded this as good luck.

It turns out that he was selected not by luck, but by his strength (face)?

Song Dandan also looked a little embarrassed. As soon as she said that Yang Ni was ugly, Wu Yuan said that she was cast in "Your Name" because she was good-looking. She was slapped in the face.

Doesn’t this mean there is something wrong with her aesthetics?

"Oh, haha." Song Dandan answered awkwardly: "Yes, Ni'ao was really cute when he was a child."

Wu Yuan nodded with a smile, looked at Yang Ni'ao and said, "Niao'ao has grown into a big girl now, she is tall and graceful."

"It's very good. I'll study hard when I take the Nortel exam. I won't be afraid of not being able to perform when I get out."

Who is Wu Yuan?

One of the best directors in the country.

He said that Yang Niao will have acting roles in the future, even if he doesn't.

Yang Niiao's face immediately burst into a bright smile, and he nodded vigorously: "Yeah! I will work hard to take the Nortel exam!"

Song Dandan was even more embarrassed.

But Wu Yuan didn't pay attention to her expression at all, and just waved his hand: "Okay, let's stop chatting for now. Let's get moving and have a try."

"If there are no problems, the movie will officially start shooting tomorrow."

Wu Yuan is not planning to hold any launch conference this time.

"A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die" is a literary and artistic film. It was not originally made for commercial purposes, so there is no need to make it so eye-catching.

The film was launched in a low-key manner, completed in a low-key manner, and submitted for review in a low-key manner. When it was finally shortlisted in Venice, the media would naturally catch wind of it and help Wu Yuan make a high-profile appearance.

On the other hand, "Those Years" has achieved gratifying results at the box office a month after it was released in the mainland. It has resonated with the youth of a large number of post-80s youth in the mainland.

It was released in the mainland for more than a month and a week, with a total box office of 221 million, successfully surpassing "Good Guys, Bad Guys, and Weird Guys" and becoming the mainland box office champion this year.

On the Internet, pirated resources of "Those Years" have been spread all over the world.

After all, this movie is not a "blockbuster" and has no big scenes or special effects.

No matter how good the publicity is and how good the movie's reputation is, the discussion on the Internet is extremely heated and attracts the curiosity of countless passers-by.

But most of these passers-by who were curious about the movie chose to look for pirated resources on the Internet instead of going to the cinema.

In this era, there are still very few viewers who actually have the habit of going to cinemas to watch movies.

Most viewers still watch new movies through computer piracy.

The pirated resources for the movie "Those Years" have spread online and offline. Whether it is free resources on the Internet or pirated discs offline, they are all emerging one after another.

From the young people in school to the main force of workers born in the 1980s who have entered the society, in the past month, the topic on their lips has not been around this movie.

The real influence of this movie can't be summed up by a box office of 221 million.

And Liu Yifei, with this movie, once again deepened her influence and lethality as "White Moonlight" in the hearts of mainland audiences.

From Zhao Ling'er in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" to Xiao Longnu in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and now Shen Jiayi in "Those Years".

Three perfect goddess images that can conquer almost all Chinese men have made Liu Yifei the only designated goddess in the hearts of Chinese men.

It can be said that just by relying on these few works, Liu Yifei can rest for the rest of her life.

Even ten or twenty years later, she can still be remembered by the entertainment industry with this face, and become an unforgettable white moonlight for generations like Wang Zuxian.

However, Liu Yifei is not satisfied with just being an actor who relies on face to make a living and commits crimes with good looks.

No, she joined the cast of "A Man Called Li Wen Decided to Die" on the second day after it started filming.
