Looking down
That is to say, I would like to introduce people who have just graduated from art or those who have just entered school to meet people in the circle...
Later, everyone started companies, entertainment companies, brokerage companies...
Sign up some pretty girls…
Dinners, parties, and karaoke are all trading venues.
More and more celebrities like to buy a house or rent a private place to use as a private club, and invite friends to drink, eat and talk...
No one knows what exactly they are talking about!
Later, with the rise of internet celebrities, scandals such as "beauty transfer" and "profit transfer" emerged one after another...
There are many pimps who get into the circle this way...
It’s also another kind of inspiration – after all, it’s hard to get into the entertainment industry!
Shen Xudong hates these things, but he also knows that there is no way to prevent them.
Because celebrities are naturally not involved in production. They are good-looking, earn a lot of money, and are the focus of public attention. They are very attractive!
To put it bluntly, if you were rich, you would also be willing to support a star...
It can be used by yourself or given to others. It is a must-have for building relationships and developing contacts!
Then you need a channel, and this channel is even a pimp...
Fish looks for fish, shrimp looks for shrimp, turtle looks for tortoise!
Therefore, he didn't bother to care about this and just rejected Boss Chen...
…
Apart from Shen Xudong, the people who attracted the most attention at the premiere of "Love Has an Afterlife" should be... Dou Wentao, Wu Jing and Gao Yuanyuan!
Dou Wentao is the host. Based on Phoenix TV's "Qiang Qiang Threesome", Dou Wentao is very famous.
Wu Jing...after "Rescue 2", he is considered an international superstar.
Needless to say, his relationship with Yu Feihong, they have worked together in "Little Li Feihong". Although they did not have many opposite roles, they have worked together in "Peach Blossoms in Troubled Times", "Racing Horses Roaring in the West Wind"...
They both play lovers.
As for Da Meiyuan, it is purely because of her high popularity, and she also shared that she was able to join the circle thanks to Yu Feihong's introduction.
"I have known her for more than ten years, and she introduced me to the mouth-cleaning commercial I shot!"
'I found out later that she was planning to cast me in "Love Is Here to Come", but at that time I was filming "The Talented Man and the Beautiful Woman", so she didn't cast me... It's a pity!'
'They said that I look very similar to Teacher Yu...'
Well, he stole a lot of attention by himself!
…
"Love has an afterlife"...
A story about waiting, including tea, ancient ginkgo trees, Ah Jiu wearing a Chinese wedding dress, and monks waiting on the road to reincarnation.
In fact, it is "Romeo and Juliet" + "Rouge Button" + "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts".
A tragedy of love between a scheming beauty seeking revenge and a peerless love.
The male and female protagonists had a bloody feud in their previous lives. They obviously loved each other, but they had to kill each other. As a result, they both died and agreed to meet again in the next life.
The hero's soul has been waiting under the ginkgo tree for more than 50 years, but what he has been waiting for is the heroine's life of falling in love with someone else. In the end, the hero's soul is gone and can no longer enter reincarnation, but the heroine thinks of him sadly after he disappears. In my previous life, I cried heartbreakingly.
That’s the story!
In fact, Shen Xudong was not sure what attracted Teacher Yu to such a story before. It was obviously not as good as "Rouge Button": "Rouge Button" expresses "sorrow". There is no greater sorrow than the death of one's heart, which makes it difficult to return to the world. The female ghost she was looking for left on her own...
What about "Love Has an Afterlife"?
It is an inversion of the love between two people who have been enemies for generations, told in a ghostly space.
The hero tells a bunch of stories and then disappears?
What’s the point that touches people’s hearts?
After some exchanges with her, I roughly understood it. She said that she would often think of that line: If he doesn't recognize her in the next life, as long as she says, "The tea is cold, I will refill it for you," he will know. That person is her!
But the tea can be renewed after it has cooled down, but the promise of the next life cannot be renewed.
Of course, Shen Xudong still felt that the logic was wrong. A Ming saw Ah Jiu's beauty and immediately snatched it home...
Why should people love you if you rob a common woman? How can you have love?
Therefore, the focus of his script is the process of love!
The key point is to create the character of A Ming. He should be cute, rather than always affectionate...
If you are only affectionate, the creator may think it is enough. The audience cannot empathize, cannot empathize with the character, and naturally cannot be moved by this relationship!
Even though Shen Xudong has made changes, but the overall structure of the story is here, Director Yu's personal style is... bland.
Well, it’s actually beautiful!
So, overall, "Love Has an Afterlife" is a bit boring...
But Teacher Yu himself is very satisfied.
After the premiere, when answering questions from the media, I said: "Love Has an Afterlife" was inspired by a short novel called "Ginkgo Ginkgo" written by Xu Lan, a female writer in Shanghai, which I saw about ten years ago. I liked this novel very much at the time. , I have always liked it and will never forget it.
As I grew up, I felt that it was very suitable to be adapted into a movie, as it was very visual, and I gradually came up with the idea of directing it myself.
"What's your prediction for the box office?"
"I have made an agreement with the investors that the box office may not be high... because it is not a movie with a strong plot, and its pace is very slow. I hope to express some more meaningful and profound emotions through my eyes and acting skills."
Gee, your director even said that the box office won't be very high...
…
Teacher Yu took the team to promote, while Shen Xudong followed Boss Chen to the Lan Club...
The Orchid Club was opened by Wang Xiaofei. For people like Wang Xiaofei, he believes that whether or not the circle of aristocratic people recognizes you has to rely on the celebrity project to maintain it.
Therefore, 300 million yuan was spent to build the Lan Club, which was specially used to entertain "social celebrities".
Basically it is the new activity place of the Huayi gang.
Boss Chen is of course a socialite. He is not only a coal boss, but also the major shareholder of Shijiu Culture. He owns the largest theater chain in Shaanxi...
Although he is not a star, he is more respectable than a star. His current girlfriend Gong Xinliang was met at Lan Club...
I heard that Huang Zhonglei was the one holding the string!
Back in the car, Shen Xudong was a little embarrassed: "Brother, I'm sorry..."
"It's a small thing, just a movie!"
"You also feel that "Love Is After Life" will not do well at the box office?"
Boss Chen smiled heartily: "In the past few years, I have watched three movies a week, and my eyesight and aesthetics have improved! When I watched the movie "Love After Life" for the first time, I felt that it was just a clichéd story with a bland plot. , the climax scene is not "sensational enough" and makes people feel stuck in their throats. This story needs to be savored carefully. I think "Love Is After Life" is like a cup of tea, which requires patience and patience, but in the current theater market, there is no need to savor it carefully. Taste the movie…”
Shen Xudong was a little surprised: "You watch three movies a week?"
"Well, I am working in the film industry now, so I must know about movies, at least what a good movie is... My manager suggested that I watch three movies a week, and he is responsible for recommending..."
Shen Xudong gave a thumbs up: "You are the one!"
"Just watching a movie..."
"Brother, I'm not exaggerating. Many famous directors don't watch new movies..."
"And you?"
"I will definitely watch it... I am a producer, and watching movies is one of the required courses for a producer... As you said, I have to know how good the movie is!"
Chapter completed!
