The King of Bad Movies[Entertainment Circle]

""Tianji" is popular again, why are you so good at reading scripts? Use it as a reference for me some other day."

As soon as Gu Yu arrived at the studio in the morning, he was dragged over by Yan Xiu to chat. His senior stared at Gu Yu seriously for several seconds, and he was worried about his status being lost in his words.

Gu Yu: "...I'm still on the rise."

"I can't go up anymore, if I go up again, I will have no way out." Yan Xiu patted Gu Yu's shoulder, "If you work so hard, what should Teacher Zhao do if he stares at me all day long?"

Gu Yu: "...Is this what you really mean?"

Yan Xiu nodded without shame: "Yes."

Gu Yu smiled at him: "We'll talk about it after I get the Maple Leaf Award for Best Actor."

Yan Xiu: "...Don't fight anymore."

Gu Yu: "No."

Having said that, Gu Yu still helped Yan Xiu to refer to a few scripts in detail - in fact, the script Yan Xiu currently chooses is still somewhat different from Gu Yu's. Created for actors of their age, they can easily find a role that suits them.

In contrast, Gu Yu is too young, and there are too few actors with similar achievements, so Gu Yu is still in the state of finding a suitable script. When he gets older, he can choose as freely as Yan Xiu. .

"This one?" Yan Xiu thought for three seconds, "I also think this movie is good, but I liked the other one more, why?"

"Analyzing the movies you have acted in before, you have basically never tried this type of role, have you?" Gu Yu counted Yan Xiu's movies he had seen with his fingers, "If I remember correctly, it should be like this. If It's me, and I choose roles that challenge myself."

Gu Yu doesn't like repetition.

"What you said makes sense, I'll think about it again."

Yan Xiu closed the script, and went to hang out with Gu Yu in Zhao Hang's office. Zhao Hang had just finished filming a movie recently, and when he was free, the director smiled when he saw the two of them coming in together, and pointed at Gu Yu: "I read the recent "Tianji", it is a good book."

"Thank you director." Gu Yu grinned.

"But don't forget to go to school to recharge your batteries. Have you finished writing your thesis?" the director looked at Gu Yu and asked solemnly.

Gu Yu: "..."

He almost forgot about it.

Papers, papers, his life and death enemy.

Why does he, a scumbag, insist on doing this?

Yan Xiu winked at Gu Yu with a gloating look on his face, Gu Yu glared at him ferociously from a place where Zhao Hang couldn't see, Yan Xiu glared back.

Gu Yu had a flash of inspiration, and looked at Zhao Hang: "Mr. Zhao, can I ask Brother Yan for the parts I don't know in the thesis?"

Zhao Hang shook his head first: "He can't, the theoretical level is not enough."

Yan Xiu had an expression of rejoicing, but in the next second, he heard the director say: "How about this, Yan Xiu, you will also get a certificate to go to Beijing Film Studio later, and you two will study together, discuss together, and make progress together."

Yan Xiu: "..."

Gu Yu almost laughed silly behind his back.

After putting on his glasses, Zhao Hang suddenly took out a stack of documents from the drawer: "Here is a script, which was handed over by Mr. Lu. There are two roles that have no suitable candidates. The film has already been filmed. You guys Can you go to the rescue?"

Yan Xiu wondered: "Ms. Lu's movie should not be short of actors, right? Even if there is no suitable candidate, you should be able to find it temporarily."

"He has high requirements, and he wants this kind of actor who can get started immediately." Zhao Hang explained, "You two should be quite suitable. Go back and try it out. If it doesn't work, forget it."

The Teacher Lu that Director Zhao mentioned is called Lu Liangping, and he was Director Zhao’s teacher and senior brother when he was in Beijing Film and Television. , the works of these years have always been rooted in the countryside. In his words, he wants the audience to see a real countryside.

Lu Liangping's crew has always been known for their hardships.

Moreover, due to the realism of the other party, the other party's works are not popular commercially, but they are quite recognized by the literary and art circles in terms of artistry. In other words, he is not inferior to Ling Zhihuai in the industry.

Zhao Hang's status is also very difficult to refuse the invitation from the other party.

However, Zhao Hang is not the boss who will force his actors to shoot a certain work. In fact, Yan Xiu and Gu Yu have not cooperated with Zhao Hang since they finished filming "Magpie", and both of them rushed to other directors. Zhao Hang I didn't say much, and went to make my own movie.

"Do you have time?" Yan Xiu asked Gu Yu.

Gu Yu thought for a moment. He has not been notified to join the production of this sci-fi film so far, and he still doesn't know when it will start shooting: "If the time is short, there should be no problem."

"It's similar to me." Yan Xiu pointed to the two characters in the script, "These two characters shouldn't have too many roles, about the same as "Silent Blooming"."

"Well, then I'll go."

Gu Yu felt that no matter how many roles he played, it would be great to experience Lu Liangping's crew, but not everyone could have such an opportunity.

During this period of time, he received too many invitations to various business activities and performances, some of which were difficult to push, so he just took advantage of the opportunity of filming to block them.

Yan Xiu also planned to go.

"It's normal for Teacher Lu to find Yan Xiu. The two of them have worked together before. Do you know why Teacher Lu is looking for you?" Zhao Hang asked Gu Yu.

Gu Yu frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head honestly.

The films he acted in before didn't match Lu Liangping's style at all. Even "Graduation Season", which depicts the reality of the college entrance examination, also has the magical style of the protagonist traveling through time.

"Didn't you invest in "My Dreams Can Fly" before? Teacher Lu approves of your vision." Zhao Hang patted Gu Yu on the shoulder, "Behave well and don't embarrass me."

Gu Yu sighed, and he had no choice but to cheer.

……

Fang Jun was the first to know that Gu Yu and Yan Xiu were going to play roles in Lu Liangping's new work, but his agent was not as optimistic as Zhao Hang.

"You two are thin skinned and tender, can you really meet Teacher Lu's requirements?"

Lu Liangping is old enough in the circle, out of respect for the other party, almost everyone in the circle calls the other party a teacher.

"How do you know if you don't try it?" Yan Xiu was very confident, "I also acted in Teacher Lu's play."

"How old are you at this time, are you 30 years old?"

"I'm not old now." Yan Xiu pointed at Gu Yu, "It should be him, right? With such a face, how can he play the role well?"

Gu Yu: "...I am dignified..."

Fang Jun stretched out his hand: "Don't say the rest, aren't you afraid of losing face?"

Gu Yu: "I've acted in several movies anyway, so you don't have confidence in me?"

Fang Jun shook his head: "No, I'm worried that you won't be able to bear this hardship."

Legend has it that Lu Liangping's film crews were indeed stationed in relatively poor and difficult places. The other party's works truly showed the living conditions of people in remote areas, but in the same way, he also captured the beauty of rural life.

A village that sticks to simplicity and tradition.

Hardworking farmers.

A bonfire rising slowly in the village.

A large area of ​​green vegetation among the cliffs, and a clear lake hidden in the mountains.

Lu Liangping stays in this place, not only taking pictures of people, but also taking pictures of scenery. His control over the pictures may not be as good as that of Ling Zhihuai of the same generation, but the real pictures are also touching.

Many places welcome Lu Liangping to make movies. Every time the other party shoots an area, this area will welcome a large number of tourists, and the economic income will rise to a higher level than before.

But Lu Liangping and Ling Zhihuai faced the same problem - no successors.

Among the directors like Ling Zhihuai and Lu Liangping, many of them make movies for their feelings. Compared with the directors of the later generation who have a stronger commercial atmosphere, they care more about the quality of the movies than the market. According to some media , They are a group of "eliminated" people. Unfortunately, the media did not think about it. If they don't shoot, who else will continue to stick to it?

Martial arts themes and rural themes are almost invisible in the current market with a strong commercial atmosphere. "Jianghu" has been popular for a while, and "My Dreams Can Fly" has been popular for a while, but if it just happens that it doesn't continue, such themes will eventually be available. One day it will be extinct.

"It shouldn't matter if you suffer." Gu Yu patted his chest, "I'm not the kind of person who likes to enjoy himself."

Gu Yu's words are put here first, but after joining the group, he realized that he really underestimated the difficulty of Lu Liangping's crew, but at this time, it was too late to regret.

……

"Have you read the script?" Yan Xiu asked Gu Yu, "We are both acting as teachers."

Yan Xiu plays a teacher who has been in a rural school for more than ten years with traditional and conservative thinking, while Gu Yu plays a young teacher who injects vitality into the rural school. The two have great differences in ideas, actions, and educational concepts. Therefore, there are many contradictions in teaching.

The crew was in a hurry, Gu Yu and Yan Xiu took the same plane, and they discussed the script on the plane.

Gu Yu recalled that the last time the two collaborated was during the "Magpie Surprise", but at this time the two were not familiar with each other, and they were very reserved when speaking, unlike now, when the two of them crazily output sentence after sentence, and Gu Yu took notes. Almost overwhelmed.

Yan Xiu looked at Gu Yu's notes curiously: "Lend me to read."

Gu Yu handed it over.

The light on the plane was not bright. Yan Xiu really didn’t realize that the notebook was so thick at the beginning. When he opened it, he was stunned. The notebook was filled with dense notes. It didn’t start from today. Yes, so there are many things that Zhao Hang mentioned in the notes.

Zhao Hang is obviously not the only director Gu Yu has worked with.

Zhang Hui's, Ling Zhihuai's, Jian Yin's...the latest is Qu Xia, the director of "Tianji". There are newcomers and old-timers among these directors, but there is no doubt that they all have their own views on performance—— —Gu Yu is also very good at taking notes, and he condenses these director's ideas in a thick notebook.

Yan Xiu can be sure that these should have been transformed into Gu Yu's own things.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiu looked at Gu Yu with complicated eyes.

In other words, he was also motivated.

During the audition for "The Magpie", Yan Xiu was surprised by Gu Yu's acting talent. He believed that the other party would be able to break through the world in the film industry, but even though Yan Xiu was very optimistic about Gu Yu, he never thought about Gu Yu's superiority. The road is so fast.

But now, looking at this notebook, he suddenly found the reason.
