Acting depends on immortality, cultivating immortality depends on popularity

Just when Cheng Xuanyu encouraged them to follow Director Lu and wait for the judges and audience to come to foreign film and television festivals like receptionists and doormen, they were in Tiange City, enjoying hamburger potatoes Xiaohua Xiaocao, who monitors the trend of public opinion on the Internet and handles various work emails received by Chengxuan studio, is very keen to find that when the news about Qi Zixun's manager is still on the cusp, someone really wants to The rhythm of fishing in troubled waters.

Xiaohua Xiaocao, who had already planned for this, was full of energy in an instant, and even thought that the human form had too few hands, so she simply changed back to the original form, waving a lot of leaves and root hairs and crackling on the keyboard.

This time, people who are rhythmic and want to turn a corner and take advantage of the trend are targeting the boy group members of Qi Zixun and his group. , Maybe the members of the team were also led in a crooked direction.

It seems that they have heard some rumors in this group, and there should be some other information and tricks in the back, and they will only use these real hammers when the time is right, and directly smash this group to death.

Because Xiaohua and Xiaocao usually stay at home for a long time, apart from dealing with Chengxuan's daily work and collecting information, they are relatively free. They read a lot of movies, TV novels, and messy things, and they are busy in Yuli. At that time, it is suggested that the two of them also learn some knowledge of computer programs and hackers.Therefore, although things that are too complicated still have to wait for Yu Li to do it himself, it is easier for them to do things that are simpler, such as checking the IP address of the rumor maker.

After searching in a circle, the two herbs quickly identified the studio of the navy, and immediately sent the relevant information to Yu Li, who was in the theater with Cheng Xuan in the theater, officially watching their cooperation for the first time Yu Li of this movie, set up a formation in the dark and manipulated it, hacked the navy studio, and found Party A who cooperated with this navy—it turned out to be another brokerage company of the same type , and also a competitor of Qi Zixun's current brokerage company.

It would be much easier to find the mastermind behind the scenes, two little guys whose professional skills are not weaker than a whole naval team. The main point is that the person in charge of this incident should just pour dirty water on his body, so that he can take care of himself, and they can't continue to take care of this kind of job of stepping on the opponent, and those sailors who spend money to buy it will not get follow-up funds. In the case of support, of course, we will not do unnecessary things. When the money is in place, there will be follow-up development.

Therefore, after arguing with Xiaohua Xiaocao and Xiaohua Xiaocao who opened a small account, and found out that the backstage that hired them was not prepared to follow up and add follow-up funds, He immediately left the position that he had been attacking for a long time before, and there was no follow-up movement.

Cheng Xuan, who was in a foreign country, felt that he was about to become a doorman. After arriving in the city where the Wilson Film Festival was held, he and Yu Li were brought together by Director Lu for a 10-minute meeting. I ran to a small movie theater and stood there with other main creative staff as doormen.

Yes, the doorman!In other words, it can be used for checking tickets or welcoming guests.

For nearly half an hour before the movie started, he kept a smile on his face, nodding and smiling politely to every different audience who came in, came from all over the world, and had skin and appearance of various colors.

Cheng Xuan knew very well that due to the difference in aesthetics between Chinese people and foreigners, and because he is basically zero-known overseas, many viewers who came to watch movies might really think that he is an ordinary ticket inspector. Or the theater staff?Anyway, before his film was watched by fans from all over the world for the first time, he didn't notice that anyone looked at him in the same way that when he was seen by passers-by in China, there was surprise or excitement in his eyes. Or a puzzled look.

Afterwards, after sixty to seventy percent of the auditorium was occupied by the audience, Cheng Xuancai, Director Lu and others came to the special seats for the main creators, and the lights in the entire theater were completely extinguished. Watching the two of them starring in person once, the first film slowly kicked off.

There is a withered yellow color that only old paper can have in the picture. A slender and thin hand is holding a shiny black chess piece, and it falls into the chessboard with a bang. The sound of silk and bamboo music suddenly resounded in the entire theater, instantly making people's minds merge with the music and merge into the pale yellow silhouette.

Before the filming started, Director Lu specially asked Cheng Xuan and Yu Li to practice Go hand gestures for a long time, how to grasp the pieces, how to drop their hands in the air, and finally fall into the board. Elegant enough to be called a picture scroll.However, with such graceful movements and many times of practice, the final shot was only used by Director Lu as the background in the opening scene! !What a waste!

And at the same time, when the two people play each other, this picture is adjusted to be very light again, as if it is a real background painting, and the chessboard where the two people are playing chess begins to show scenes after scenes after director Lu deliberately edited them. In the opening scene of the scene.

A deep and slightly hoarse male voice sounded, the rhythm of the song echoed with the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard in the background of the screen, and then the melody changed, and the singing turned into a beautiful Kunqu opera, and the whole screen echoed the theme song, Sometimes it slows down and sometimes rushes, instantly pulling everyone into that simple and mellow era, completely forgetting who Xi was in the past...

A total of two hours and 27 minutes, this is the result of director Lu's editing and editing. It is said that his original version has been shortened by more than 5 hours. After the films that participated in the selection were not so willful, they reluctantly lost more than half to get the current finished product.

Director Lu said that the two-hour version will be released in theaters later, but the 5-hour version must be added to the director's cut version on the Internet or on sale!

Because he can pat his chest to ensure that the five-hour version will never appear bloated because of his long time, but can more thoroughly and perfectly show the connotation of the whole film.

Cheng Xuan didn't know how the five-hour version of the movie was cut by Director Lu, but after watching the two-hour movie in one go, he felt that he was sincerely and completely immersed in the whole movie. middle.I have to say that Director Lu is really good at making such works that show people's hearts in a very delicate way.And before this filming, Director Lu deliberately studied domestic classic costume dramas, costume movies, and Chinese operas for at least two years.

He perfectly displayed the elegance and elegance of Chinese opera and the thick and reserved costume movies in this film. It can be said that even if this film does not meet the aesthetics of foreigners and cannot be shortlisted for this Wilson The list of winners of the film festival, but in Cheng Xuan's eyes, this is enough, and it will definitely be recognized by the majority of domestic movie fans if it is released in China!

The movie ended, and the melodious music sounded again. With the slowly rising list of actors, the lights in the room were also turned on one by one. Only then did Cheng Xuan regain his senses and realized that the people around him were gradually leaving the scene.

When he got up and walked out together with Director Lu and the others, he complained to Yu Li in a low voice: "I actually forgot that this was in a movie theater just now..."

Because at the beginning, for the convenience of going out, Cheng Xuan and Yu Li taught themselves all the mainstream languages ​​in the world. When he came to participate in the film festival this time, he planned to eavesdrop on the suspected judges and The chat content of the audience, let's see if this movie has any hope of being nominated for even one or two peripheral awards?

It's just that even he himself was surprised that even he was completely attracted to the movie as soon as it was screened.

Using the viewing time to secretly contact the younger brothers, and blackmailed Yu Li of Shuijun Studio: "... Director Lu's film is indeed very well-produced and very attractive."

Perhaps it was because it was the first time to watch a film starring him, when Yu Li saw himself appearing on the big screen, he would always subconsciously jump into the scene.Just like the involuntary reaction when seeing the illusion in the previous life, it will not be completely settled like Cheng Xuan.

But it's too disappointing to say this now, and even though he always skips scenes, he is still attracted by the plot of this movie, so he has to praise Director Lu for his brilliant editing.

After everyone left the theater, they didn't stay long, and immediately rushed to the hotel where they were temporarily staying. The rules of the Wilson Film Festival's viewing week are: a film will only be screened for 5 screenings within a week.So after today's release, there will be no business with Cheng Xuan and the others for the time being, and the next show will have to wait until the next day.

After returning to the hotel, Director Lu, who was frowning all the way, sighed full of regret, and made all the main creators who followed him to participate in the film festival immediately raise their hearts to their throats and stare at him eagerly. Looking at him, I wonder if something went wrong in the movie just now, which will affect the final result of the election?

Seeing that one sigh was not enough for Director Lu, he sighed a second time, and said with great regret: "It's a pity, if the five-hour version can be played, the effect should be much better than it is now."

Everyone: ...Even if you don't consider the viewing time of ordinary movies, you should at least consider the problem of moviegoers going to the bathroom!Five hours is such a long time, and if you have a bad kidney, you still have to hold back something wrong!

"Director Lu, do you think the five-hour version is better than the current version?" The assistant director asked cautiously, and prepared to post some knowledge points to the small book.

Director Lu shook his head: "Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but the five-hour version's plot is more fully developed. Now that this version has been condensed, I'm afraid there are some obscure stalks that foreigners won't be able to understand."

Crowd: ...

Everyone is a professional filmmaker!There must be a lot more obscure films than yours in the elections from various countries. I don’t know how many people have seen such works. Even if the culture is different, it will cause a misunderstanding, but it’s not that no one among those film critics has seen Huaguo. work?You really think people are fools! !
