Millennium director

On the playground of the film school.

Liu Yifei intertwined her hands in front of her and kept rubbing them. She lowered her head and followed Wu Yuan with an expression of recognition.

After Liu Yifei told Wu Yuan the general content and situation of the two movies, he couldn't help but complain.

"Do you still need two months of Peking Opera training?"

"Do you think this is Farewell My Concubine?"

"After two months of singing, body and drama performances, the film turned out to be a youth romance film, telling the story of a mainland girl and a Taiwanese boy dating online?"

"Then why practice Peking Opera for two months? It's a complete waste of time!"

"There is also that one in "Love Winner". Xiao Xuanfeng is very handsome, but are his acting skills good enough for the big screen?"

"Audiences will not spend money to go to the cinema to watch his movies just for the sake of reputation. His reputation is not that great."

"The most important thing is that neither of the two movies, from the screenwriter to the director, is reliable."

"Even if you accept it, it's a complete waste of time. If you take it, it will be the same as if you didn't take it. It will delay your studies and it will not help your own reputation."

Even from today's perspective, these two Baodao movies are definitely not good projects.

The script has no hit points, the director is a third-rate unknown, and the actors are all idols. From the project preparation stage, it has a strong feeling of being street-level.

It doesn’t take Wu Yuan, a person with future memories, as anyone who has made achievements in the film field can see these problems.

After complaining fiercely, Wu Yuan stopped, turned around and patted Liu Yifei's shoulder earnestly: "Classmate Yifei, actors don't just accept every role that comes to them."

"It's better to take care of your feathers."

Liu Yifei raised her head and looked at Wu Yuan's serious look. She nodded in understanding: "I understand, senior brother."

What is Wu Yuan's identity?

He said that the scripts of these two movies were not good, the directors were unreliable, and the actors were not good enough. This must be true, and Liu Yifei could only listen obediently.

"Brother, just call me Sissi." She smiled sweetly and said, "This is my nickname."

"When I was very young, the movie "Sissi" was very popular in China. My mother gave me this nickname after watching the movie."

"Growing up, my relatives and friends have always called me this."

Wu Yuan put down his hand, nodded casually, turned around and continued walking on the playground.

Well, he has also seen "Princess Sissi".

An Austrian classic film, it was dubbed and dubbed by Mordu Dubbing Factory in 1988. It set off a movie-watching craze when it was released in China.

But he didn't take it to heart, but was thinking about something else.

At present, Liu Yifei is the most suitable actor to play the heroine of "Your Name".

Among the current mainland actors, if you want to find an actor who can play the role of a high school girl, Liu Yifei is certainly the most suitable.

She is under 16 years old, which is her biggest advantage!

If she went to film those two bad films about Treasure Island, where would Wu Yuan find the heroine?

Originally, Wu Yuan was not in a hurry about "Your Name" and thought it would not be too late to discuss it in detail with a few actors after "Romeo and Juliet" was finished.

Because of the male lead and other supporting roles, Wu Yuan hasn’t decided who will play them yet.

But now it seems that Wu Yuan still has to talk to Liu Yifei first.

Otherwise, her mother might actually be able to make these two movies.

Thinking of Liu Yifei's mother, Wu Yuan had a headache.

This Aunt Liu really loves her daughter and protects her very well, but her vision in selecting films is really bad.

No, I can’t blame Liu’s mother. Actors actually don’t have much choice when accepting roles, and good scripts are not easy to find.

For a celebrity like Liu Yifei, it is difficult to get a good movie script handed to her, and she has no qualifications to be picky. It would be nice to have a movie to act in.

It’s no wonder that Liu’s mother is so excited about these two movies.

Being able to play the leading role in a movie at the age of 16 is a rare opportunity!

After thinking about this, Wu Yuan sighed, looked directly into Liu Yifei's clear and bright eyes, and said in a calm tone:

"Sissi, senior brother, I'll tell you the truth."

"Your image and age are perfect for playing the leading role in my next movie."

"However, there are still some shortcomings in your acting skills."

"So I hope you will take this rehearsal of 'Romeo and Juliet' seriously and enrich and improve your acting skills."

"In this way, during the summer vacation, you will be the heroine for me, and we will make an excellent movie together."

"Isn't this better than making those two Treasure Island movies?"

"Really?!" A bright smile broke out on Liu Yifei's face, and she looked at Wu Yuan with bright eyes.

Being stared directly at by a young, beautiful and good-looking girl, Wu Yuan was in a daze for a moment.

Unknowingly, more than half a year has passed.

Liu Yifei has grown taller again, and the baby fat on her face has faded a bit, making her more like the fairy in Wu Yuan's impression.

I have to admit that looking directly at the smiling face of the immortal at close range is indeed quite impressive.

"Well, really." Wu Yuan avoided Liu Yifei's gaze and coughed dryly, trying to cover up his gaffe.

But he didn't notice that the corners of Liu Yifei's bright smile seemed to be raised higher, and her beautiful phoenix eyes were narrowed into a slit when she smiled.

She looked at Wu Yuan with a smile. It wasn't until Wu Yuan met her gaze again that he clenched his fist with one hand and made a "come on" motion, puffed his mouth and said energetically:

"I understand, senior brother! I will work hard!"

That night, at Liu Yifei's home.

"Really? Director Wu really said that?" Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter in surprise, with an unbelievable expression on her face.

As soon as Liu Yifei got home, she told her mother everything about her chat with Wu Yuan today.

Liu Xiaoli understands Wu Yuan's disdain for those two Treasure Island movies.

Regardless of Wu Yuan's status and level, the movies that appeal to him must be literary and artistic films that have the potential to win awards, while commercial films must be of Hollywood quality.

Liu Xiaoli doesn't think there's anything wrong with Wu Yuan not liking these two movies, but at the same time, she doesn't think Wu Yuan doesn't like them, which means Liu Yifei shouldn't act in them.

For Liu Yifei, if there is an opportunity to act in a movie, she must seize it. At least she must first establish her identity as a "movie actor".

There is no such thing as box office poison in the Mainland these days. After all, no one’s movies are good at the box office.

As long as Liu Yifei can firmly establish her identity as a "movie actor", then even if the film path is opened, it will be better than staying in the field of TV dramas!

What mainly surprised and disbelieved her was that Wu Yuan actually invited Liu Yifei to participate in his next movie!

Although Liu Yifei said that her acting skills still need to be improved before she can get the leading role, when Liu Xiaoli heard this, it was almost an implicit decision.

Wu Yuan has personally led her to rehearse the play, are you still worried that she won't be able to hone her acting skills?

It's just that Wu Yuan, who can get along well in Hollywood, why should Liu Yifei, who has average acting, use her as the heroine in a movie?

You know, among the last batch of domestic actors who collaborated with Wu Yuan, the male lead was named Zhang Guorong. Although the female lead was a bit inferior, her husband was named Chen Kaige!

Liu Xiaoli frowned and looked her daughter up and down.

Although in her heart, her daughter is a treasure and will definitely become a great actress with excellent acting skills in the future.

But now Liu Yifei does still need to grow and grow, and she is still a little far away from this goal.

In her opinion, Liu Yifei's current level is really not up to par with a top director like Wu Yuan.

On the contrary, the two films of Baodao are the best films of Liu Yifei's level.

Now Wu Yuan is actually willing to take her personally, train her acting skills, and even give her a drama date?

Seeing her daughter's increasingly stunning face and figure, Liu Xiaoli said hesitantly: "Sissi, does Director Wu like you?"

"Although Director Wu is not very old either"

"But you are still young and it is inappropriate to consider these things now."

"Ah?!" Liu Yifei, who was immersed in the rice, raised her head in surprise. She didn't even bother to lick the rice grains at the corner of her mouth. She slapped her chopsticks and said in annoyance: "Mom, what are you talking about!"

"No such thing!"
