Bright Era of China Entertainment

The initial success of the Longyou platform has made everyone in Bright Times express their imagination about the future of the company.

Even though the development of the platform is still far from stable, it still makes everyone excited to talk about it.

With the arrival of Chenglong and others, everyone's conversation came to an abrupt end. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were no longer easy to talk about the company's planning issues.

From the conversation, we learned that "Hope" was nominated for Cannes, which was an unexpected surprise for the young couple.

A large group of people said hello to each other, then sat at two tables and chatted, most of which were about movies.

When the waiter brought all the dishes, twenty or thirty people at the two tables filled up the wine, and all stood up to say "Happy Birthday" to Chu Xuan, and a small birthday party began.

It was a great honor for someone to celebrate his birthday, and Chu Xuan also seemed particularly happy.

"Do it!" He raised his glass and said enthusiastically.

From the 20-year-old Liu Yi Fei celebrating his birthday alone, to the family dinner on his 21st birthday, to the company dinner on his 22nd birthday, to the 23-year-old "Hope" and "Zhu Xian" crew celebrating his birthday, and finally to today's 24-year-old Han Sanping, etc. People celebrate his birthday.

Every time a birthday comes, there are more and more people celebrating it every year, and the number of people who come is getting bigger every time.

The small details of these five birthdays have also witnessed Chu Xuan's growth in the past five years.

From a lonely patient at the beginning, to now a central figure in everyone's eyes.

From a tangled and contradictory person who was far away from interests, he is now a dream chaser in a worldly environment.

From a humble yet arrogant person in the beginning, he has now become a humble, low-key, motivated soul who is persistent in his dreams.

If external ability is the wealth given to him by his two lifetime experiences, the prerequisite for him to show his external ability is his inner vitality, change in thought and adjustment of mentality.

These changes and pursuits on the spiritual level are the beliefs given to him by Liu Yifei's existence and companionship.

"Are you happy today?" Liu Yifei helped Chu Xuan into the room.

Chenglong and the others will be filming tomorrow. Wang Jinhua, Han Sanping and the others still need to negotiate and discuss related matters in the past few days before going to Macron's company. The birthday party only lasted until ten o'clock in the evening.

No one had drunk too much, except Chu Xuan, who was drunk from cup to cup and was walking a little swaying.

"Happy!" he shouted loudly, the excitement in his tone expressing his inner joy.

Liu Xiaoli, who opened the door on the opposite side of the corridor, turned around and saw her son-in-law in such a state. She, the mother-in-law, shook her head and smiled, and didn't say much. Her birthday once a year was worth having a good time.

Liu Yifei closed the door with her backhand. Her cheeks were a little pink. She also drank four taels of white wine, and she looked about [-] to [-] minutes drunk.

"24 years old." Her left hand went around Chu Xuan's back and hugged Chu Xuan's waist, and her right hand held Chu Xuan's hand that fell from her right shoulder.

"En." Chu Xuan nodded.

Liu Yifei narrowed her eyes slightly, her sly eyes indicating that she had some strange thoughts. She said, "Sister Hua told me before that you are going to get married when you are 25 years old?"

Chu Xuan paused as he walked into the bedroom. Are you planning to get married at the age of 25?
Although he drank too much, his consciousness was still very clear.

He vaguely remembered that when Hua Jie was still at Huayi, he went to Hua Jie's house for the first time. Chen Daoming, Li Congtong, Ren Quan and Liu Jialin were also there at that time.

I don't know which big brother or sister asked him about his future plans, but he seemed to have said something about getting married at the age of 25.

His memory was awakened and he remembered this past event. Unexpectedly, Sister Hua told Liu Yifei about it at some point.

"Do you have any objections?" He blinked.

Chu Xuan was laughing, and so was Liu Yifei.

"What if I have any objections?" She helped Chu Xuan to the bedside.

"No, I love you so much, how can you be willing to have an opinion." Chu Xuan sat on the bed.

Just as he was about to lie down, Liu Yifei grabbed her, helped him take off his clothes, and asked persistently: "What if there is one?"

"Then how could it not happen?" Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and smiled, and they both talked about this topic tacitly.

"Hmm..." Liu Yifei wrinkled her nose playfully and continued to make "hmm" sounds in her mouth. She took off Chu Xuan's coat and threw it aside, then said: "Let's see how you behave."

In fact, she wanted to take advantage of Chu Xuan's drunkenness to tell him a story about Chu Xuan, such as when he would propose, what plans he had, etc., because she was really curious.

However, she didn't say whether Chu Xuan would fall for it, but if she asked, she would not be surprised at all.

She knows Chu Xuan very well and knows that Chu Xuan is a person who likes to act according to plans.

Sister Hua told her that Chu Xuan plans to get married around the age of 25. She believes that Chu Xuan will definitely plan this matter in time.

Moreover, under her guidance, Chu Xuan likes meaningful days more and more. In Chu Xuan's opinion, meaningful days are more memorable.

In other words, Chu Xuan will probably propose to her on her birthday next year?

Or propose to her on her birthday next year?

Liu Yifei was very smart and knew Chu Xuan very well. She could guess a thing or two from the bits and pieces of information.

But she never thought that the day of her proposal would be on her birthday this year, because she thought she would be too busy this year, filming a movie and preparing for the Olympics.

"Yeah!" Just as she was thinking, Chu Xuan pulled her onto the bed. Before she could speak, Chu Xuan kissed her lips.

The blankets on the sheets began to become messy, as if to say that some things were indescribable.

……

Wang Jinhua, Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and others made a rare visit to Los Angeles. It happened that Tang Jili and the crew were filming the company's movie here, and they were also very interested in visiting.

As the director of the film, Han Sanping showed up on the set to prove his existence.

A group of big shots arrived, and the actors who had been playing around during this period of time gathered in the studio on time when the crew started working. Maybe if the relationship is established, someone will help their future. Woolen cloth.

This kind of profit-seeking behavior is very unpleasant, but in this complex society, if you want to move up even if your status is not enough, only those who are scheming can survive better.

While Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were filming, they also gathered with Sister Hua and the others to communicate during their breaks.

Since the advent of Brilliant Era, Wang Jinhua has broken away from her role as an agent. She has been able to go to the sets of "Dragon" and "The Condor" to watch the young couple filming in person. Now it has been three years since she went to the set.

This time she came to the set by chance, and everything nearby was still very fresh to her.

Especially the young couple's scenes together made her smile unstoppable.

On the set, in front of a green cloth stage.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei stood side by side, Chu Xuan was bare-handed, and Liu Yifei was carrying a bow and arrow on his back.

The two faced a villainous actress, an action actor about the same age as Seiryu, Michiko Nisigata.

This actress is from an island country and has been developing in the Hong Kong film industry since the 80s. Due to her nationality, she was destined to be unable to develop in China, so she is not well-known in China.

Putting aside the issue of nationality, her Sanda moves are impeccable. Even Chenglong said that if she came for real, he wouldn't be very sure he could win this woman.

This scene is obviously a two-on-one situation.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chu Xuan rushed forward quickly, while Michiko Nishitaka remained motionless with a cold face.

When Chu Xuan got close, he punched her in the face.

She quickly stretched out her hand to hold Chu Xuan's fist, her face as calm as water, not taking Chu Xuan seriously at all.

She made a forceful movement to push Chu Xuan's fist to the right, as if she wanted to twist Chu Xuan's hand off.

At this moment, Liu Yifei's figure flashed out of the camera from her perspective. She turned her head to look, and the camera also followed the angle of her head and looked straight ahead.

When she saw clearly, Liu Yifei kicked her directly in the face with a side spin kick, trying to force her to let go of Chu Xuan.

Michiko Nisigata did not let go of Chu Xuan's hand, but pulled Chu Xuan back two steps to avoid Liu Yifei's side spin kick, and let Liu Yifei's kick almost brush Chu Xuan's face.

After being almost kicked to death by Liu Yifei, Chu Xuan acted like he was scared: "It's okay, it's okay."

He vividly interprets the image of a scumbag who is careless and frightened.

But when he just breathed a sigh of relief, the moment Michiko Nisigata let go of his hand, she turned her fist into a palm and slapped Chu Xuan on the chest, and slapped Chu Xuan away.

The master who controlled the automatic wire device controlled the wire on Chu Xuan's body and drove Chu Xuan to fly in the direction of Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei, with quick eyes and quick feet, turned sideways to avoid the impact from Chu Xuan.

With a "bang", Chu Xuan hit the ground and said in pain: "Can't you take me over?"

Liu Yifei didn't look at him, but stared at Michiko Nisigata: "I will be injured after you, and we will all die in the end." Liu Yifei's rationality left Chu Xuan speechless.

But what Liu Yifei said makes sense. After all, she is the main force in the fight.

If Liu Yifei was injured, then they would basically have to run away.

Chu Xuan stroked his chest, ignoring the prop plasma leaking from the corner of his mouth, and stood up as if enduring the pain.

The two launched an offensive against Michiko Nisigata again, but they still couldn't win.

Chu Xuan was slapped by her again and fell to the ground, acting like he was in constant pain.

Liu Yifei was as calm and calm as Michiko Nisigata, but she was more dignified than Michiko Nisigata. She launched a leg knee in the air, but Michiko Nisigata spun around and kicked her in the stomach.

Under the control of Master Wia, Liu Yifei flew backwards in the direction of Chu Xuan.

As soon as Chu Xuan stood up, he saw Liu Yifei coming at her.

With quick eyes and quick hands, he hugged Liu Yifei who was coming in mid-air. He was pushed back repeatedly by the huge force, and finally his left leg stepped back on the edge of a prop wooden box to stop his body.

"Let go of your hands!" Liu Yifei was held in Chu Xuan's arms, lying in a semi-lying position. She felt Chu Xuan's hands around her waist, and she shouted uncomfortably.

Chu Xuan looked at her with a look that was truly speechless.

I saved you, but you have this attitude?

Chu Xuan was very obedient and put his hand down.

Just hearing a "bang", Liu Yifei was caught off guard and fell to the ground.

In front of the monitor, Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaoli couldn't help laughing. If they weren't filming, they would laugh out loud.

This script was designed...

One moment, Chu Xuan was not rescued by Liu Yifei and smashed the ground. The next moment, Liu Yifei was saved by Chu Xuan but did not appreciate it and smashed the ground. Is this considered retaliation?
This looks quite funny.

In the camera, Liu Yifei glared at Chu Xuan fiercely, but she didn't say much because the situation was urgent.

However, Michiko Nisigata walked over coldly, seemingly wanting to finish off these two humans, but as soon as she took a few steps, she saw Chen Musheng outside the set making a gesture.

She turned her head and looked outside, as if she heard the sound of the army coming to rescue. She took one last look at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, turned around and ran away.

"Crack."

"Next time."

Tang Jili put down the walkie-talkie.

Wang Jinhua then laughed and said: "This is so interesting. It would be fun for them not to act as a couple."

Director of Photography Lu Chuan said: "A very sensible kung fu beauty, and a scumbag who just wants to lie down but is very righteous. When these two characters are combined together, their personalities are destined to be full of contradictions, but they also have a sense of justice that makes These two people have the same thoughts and actions, so they will fall in love and kill each other along the way, creating a lot of interesting dramatic conflicts."

"Quite interesting." Wang Jinhua nodded slightly.

"It's indeed interesting." Han Sanping crossed his arms and said: "The two of them are a special combination in the actor circle. I used to feel that they would be visually tired if they worked together all the time, but now it seems that it is actually a problem of the character relationship and the plot setting."

Chen Kaige said: "With so many resources, I set up some characters with different relationships and different settings. From this perspective, their acting options are actually quite broad, and they are not as limited as previously imagined."

Zhang Jizhong nodded. In the past, they had only watched Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei play lovers. They had also discussed whether they would suffer from visual fatigue.

The reason why we discuss this is because there is no such real-life couple and on-screen partner in the world, and they are also an actor combination of male and female protagonists.

It was only with the popularity of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei's works that they discovered that there was nothing wrong with such a combination, but the problem lay in the homogeneous roles.

Just like Liu Qingyun, an actor in Hong Kong, he seems to have been playing the role of a policeman all his life. Acting in other roles will make the audience feel uncomfortable, and playing a policeman will cause visual fatigue to the audience. Homogeneous roles are the fundamental constraint on the development of actors.

Breaking the box of homogeneous roles, only after debuting, he plays different types of roles, constantly giving the audience a sense of freshness and giving the market a sense of novelty.

But the vast majority of actors have no choice but to let capital choose.

Even in Hong Kong, there were many on-screen couples who were sought after by the market, but without screenwriters tailor-made scripts and capital to support them, these on-screen couples could only be broken up.

But Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are different. As long as they want, Brilliant Times can create various tailor-made scripts of different types for them. This is what makes these two people most unique as actors and cannot be imitated by others.

Seeing the two children approaching, Liu Xiaoli asked with concern: "Are you hurt?"

"It's okay." Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei shook their heads.

The scene just now was a real fall, but Wia took the force. Although it hit the floor for real, it was not serious.

However, there is still some physical pain, but the young couple has a solution, which is to give each other a massage after returning to the hotel. This is also the way they have always enhanced their relationship during filming.

After hearing what they said, everyone stopped paying attention and diverted the topic to the movement of the mirror.

"You don't know how to do it, right?" Tang Jili started talking enthusiastically when talking about the wrap-around mirror movement.

Ever since Tang Jili pioneered this method of moving the camera a few years ago, he has never boasted about his prowess on the crew, and everyone still thinks he is very humble.

Unexpectedly, in front of Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and Han Sanping, Tang Jili's pride and pride showed up in an instant, making Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei want to laugh.

Now they finally realized that Tang Jili had hidden his pride in his heart some time ago because he was too high-level as a director in the entire crew and didn't bother to show anything in front of them.

But in front of Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and Han Sanping, three film and television peers of his generation, Tang Jili could no longer suppress his inner feelings. He tried his best to show off his achievements to them and fully expressed his proud heart.

It can only be said that young people have their own ways of showing off, and the older generation have their own ways of expressing themselves.

"You're ahead of us." When Chen Kaige heard the characteristics of Tang Jili's camera technique, he couldn't help but admire Tang Jili's professional research spirit and achievements. This is something that no director in China can do. , it can even be said to be the first in the world.

"We can let Wen Mino learn from it. "Hope" will definitely be able to apply it. When the time comes, we will hold a meeting in the Directors Association to promote it." Han Sanping said.

While Chen Kaige and Zhang Jizhong were still thinking about how to incorporate Tang Jili's camera techniques into their own styles, Han Sanping was thinking about directors in the entire industry.

As one of the leaders in the direction of Chinese films, Han Sanping's structure puts his selfish desires above the entire circle, and he aims to lead the entire film industry to flourish.

"Let's try it again. When "Hope" starts shooting, I will be the producer. If this kind of camera operation can play a good role in two different types of science fiction, I will discuss the academic discussion with you, Han. "Tang Jili said.

"It's great that Director Tang will be the producer of "Hope"." Liu Yifei said, looking at Chu Xuan. The young couple had originally wanted to ask these big guys to help produce "Hope". After all, Wen Muye was alone. Definitely can't handle it.

It's just that it's still too far away from the filming of "Hope", so they just keep this idea in their hearts.

Now that they heard that Tang Jili offered to help "Hope", they were very happy.

Han Sanping smiled and patted Tang Jili on the shoulder: "It can definitely be included in the textbooks."

Tang Jili grinned. Everyone has selfish motives, and no one would be happy to guide and make public what they have created if there is no reward.

Artists are not as virtuous as saints. As long as they are human beings, they have desires.

Han Sanping had the idea of ​​letting him guide and publicize this set of camera movements. He couldn't help but recall that Chu Xuan's three-act theory was included in the Beijing Film Academy's textbooks for experimental teaching.

Chu Xuan's three-act theory still needs to be studied, but his mirroring techniques have already been put into practice with good results.

No matter how good other directors are, they only use individual shots in their works for teaching, but if his entire set of camera techniques can be used for teaching in the directing department, then his reputation will definitely be taken to a higher level.

When they are in their 50s, they don’t know how many more years they can make movies.

At their level, fame is obviously what they want to pursue more than having endless money in their bank cards.

Where does fame come from?
Than box office?This is just the most obvious number.

If you want to convince these directors, in addition to box office, you need to compare lenses, aesthetics, light and shadow, and details. This is what film art should have and can make hundreds of schools of thought contend in the global film and television industry.

Tang Jili is a bit high-spirited at this moment. With his own set of camera results and the capital support of Brilliant Era, he may be able to compete with those world-class directors for the rest of his life.

Who says that the older generation of film and television people do not have innovations and dreams? Looking at the current state of Tang Jili is enough to show that dreams are regardless of age. It depends on whether certain artists dare to break their own perceptions and pursue new things.

Although Chen Kaige and Zhang Jizhong had smiles on their faces, they remained silent.

They have reason to wonder whether Han Sanping's sudden suggestion that "it can definitely be included in the textbooks" is irritating them, and whether he is using the innovations in Tang Ji to satirize their inaction and inaction over the years, and they are just running around and ignoring the film and television arts. creation on.

Regardless of whether they were overthinking it or not, this was indeed a bit irritating to them.

The struggles of these artists are also really interesting. They only speak to the point, and the rest is all up to you to understand.

Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei, Liu Xiaoli, and Wang Jinhua saw that the atmosphere of the conversation suddenly became a little solid. They also looked at the faces of Chen Kaige and Zhang Jizhong, and more or less noticed something. The whole family looked at each other and felt it was interesting. (End of chapter)
