I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 195 Four Leaf Clover

Chapter 195. 193. Clover

"The casting of "Dream of Red Mansions" has restarted! Li Shaohong: We will respect and restore the original work to the greatest extent!"

At the beginning of November, it was "A Dream of Red Mansions" that became popular first.

In a short interview with reporters, Li Shaohong once again firmly confirmed the statement of overthrowing the "Dream of Red Mansions" talent show, which was praised by many people.

That's right.

What kind of talent show did it a few months ago, messy things...it looks like nothing.

but……

When asked "whether Yang Mi will participate in the show", Li Shaohong gave a very firm answer:

"She has been preparing and has a very positive attitude. As far as I know, she has not only been studying the original work, but also often consults some red science experts, including correcting body shape, manners, and even began to control weight and body, in order to maximize Play the role you will play well.

However, this does not mean that I have determined that she will definitely play a certain role in the play, or that she has been pre-determined as one of the actors.She is the same as everyone else, everything must start from the original work, everyone's starting point for competition is the same, no one will be surprised.All of our starting points are based on the original work. "

There is nothing wrong with what I said.

Seems pretty fair and just.

only……

After Yang Mi read this interview, she lowered her head and looked at her figure in a daze.

From the curvaceous S to the round and enchanting 8.

Your old man... lie more professionally?
I can’t even read Chapter 1 of Dream of Red Mansions without mentioning it, so I still ask red scholars?

Even if the company wants to use my enthusiasm to hype, don't take what I say as if you understand it.

I don't understand Dream of the Red Chamber.

I don't understand at all.

I don't even watch it!

and also……

Is the second half of your old man warning me?
If I'm disobedient, then with your words, you can turn me into an actor with "superficial acting skills" with just a little manipulation?

After all, I can't even act in the Red Chamber... I can't compete with other newcomers...

Teacher Li.

Is it really appropriate to step on it like this?

I regard you as my teacher, but you are like this...

Come on, friendship is profit.Right?
In the end, Yang Mi didn't say anything.

Anyway, on the set.

If the media can block me after it's finished, then... Sigh.

Forget it, you are not benevolent, I cannot be unrighteous.

So be it.

Kindness to justice.

……

"The King of Kung Fu" is finished.

Just at the moment of November 11th.

Logically speaking, the completion of a play is the completion.

Then take the time to go to post-production, and then take out the work early, schedule it, and release it.

But if you really just do this simply, how can you be worthy of the co-starring of two kung fu superstars Cheng Long and Li Lianjie?

Therefore, at the critical moment of finalization, Huayi Brothers also held a special press conference for finalization in Hengdian.

Talk about the feelings of the leading actors when filming.

But talking about feelings, in fact, everyone knows what's going on.

Propaganda.

Although this film is not purely a film invested by Tianchao Company, it is a joint venture film.

but……

That's Cheng Long.

That's Li Lianjie.

As long as these two people get together under the same lens... let alone filming in the same frame, even a cameo in a movie is enough to make people hooked.

Therefore, the reporters at this press conference are all real media that have maintained good cooperation with Huayi Brothers for a long time, and their momentum is really not small.

At this moment, outside the auditorium of Hengdian Town.

Countless reporters were waiting at the door, ready to enter.

Before arriving today, everyone already knew the interview process stipulated by Huayi Brothers through the company.

In fact, there are two points that can be said. One point is to prohibit excessive exaggeration and enlarge some specific answers in specific scenarios.

This is to prevent certain topics from being deliberately enlarged.For example, the role...

Cheng Long has more roles, but Li Lianjie has more roles.

Cheng Long's role is more important than Li Lianjie's role.

Like this, for example, Cheng Long likes to make jokes. If he is asked these questions, he will say "I'm just playing tricks. Li Lianjie is a bully, and he often beats me to the point where I can't find him." Anyone who is not a fool will not Believe in jokes, but if misunderstood and distorted by the media, it will be very troublesome.

So this is strictly prohibited.

The second is about character selection and roles.

After all... There have been some rumors in this play.

At this moment, the reporters waiting outside the auditorium gathered together in twos and threes, and standing in the distance, two reporters who looked young were squatting on the curb, watching the crowd smoking and chatting in the distance.

A young man with a press card hanging on his chest lit a cigarette for another middle-aged man who seemed to be much older than him, and asked:

"Brother Sun, what's the point of this kind of interview? You are not allowed to ask this, and you are not allowed to ask..."

"call……"

After puffing out smoke, the middle-aged man called "Brother Sun" smiled and said in a low voice:

"Otherwise? If you come, at least you can get an interview. If you don't come, you can't get anything. Isn't it just such a small thing... So it's enough to live on the surface."

"..."

After hearing this, the young man nodded:

"Hey, Brother Sun, I heard that this kind of big company will give reporters red envelopes after the end. How much is it usually?"

As soon as I heard this, I was asked by a reporter who had just arrived.

But Brother Sun also knew that this kid had something to do with the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, otherwise he wouldn't have let him take it with him, so he didn't hide it, and picked out some rules in the industry one after another and said:
"Not today."

"……what?"

"Think about it, the gimmick of this movie itself is big. If the relationship with Huayi Brothers is not good, the newspaper will not be able to get an interview. We are also a supply and demand relationship. They want to promote whoever they want, and we help to pay for it. Take it. There is no red envelope for today's high-level gimmick news."

"This... I thought it would be a little extra money."

"Ha, next time, next time I will take you to find a few fat men."

"Um……"

After the young man responded, he suddenly asked:
"Hey, Brother Sun, what do you think... are the rumors about this movie true? They originally planned to make Li Bingbing the heroine, but they met Liu Yifei..."

"pretty close."

Brother Sun looked around, and after confirming that there was no one there, he took a puff of cigarette, and continued to lower his voice:

"Otherwise, if you think about it, in this film, apart from the beautiful people, everyone else in this film is from Huayi and the others. Even Li Lianjie is an investor... Unless Huayi's brain has gone crazy, he will use an "outsider" Liu Yifei as the protagonist. So ...Look, Liu Yifei will enter Huayi after this movie is released at most."

"...Then doesn't she steal Li Bingbing's role? Isn't Li Bingbing angry?"

"Because Li Bingbing is obedient, you know."

Brother Sun smiled deeply:

"Think about who Huayi has now. Let's not talk about anything else. Zhou Xun, who came in at the beginning of this year, and Liang Bingning, the contract expires at the end of this year, but whether it will be renewed has not been discussed yet. There will be another soon. Liu Yifei joined in. Let's not talk about those Hong Kong and Taiwan stars.

In the domestic area, Li Bingbing has Liang Bingning on top, Zhou Xun next to her, and Liu Yifei below her...and those people who are a little weaker than her are watching...Huayi has no shortage of people, you know.If she didn't behave more obediently, Zhou Xun would ride on her head, and Liu Yifei might replace her.

What's more... Do you think that woman Liang Bingning is simple?Why didn't she renew her contract?It's actually very simple, she is very greedy.Want more, get it?But Huayi couldn't give her much.Because it is a big company, it needs a bowl of water to be level.And the more she gets, the more resources she will squeeze out.

So... there are so many cakes, and everyone has to have their own core things in the company.The core of Li Bingbing is to be obedient.Playing the image of a loyal minister.Although she didn't know what Lizi was, she had to be obedient and sensible. "

Speaking of this, he took a puff of cigarette and shook his head slightly:
"So, grab it and grab it. As long as you are not an enemy in the entertainment industry, you are a friend. Between friends, if you stole something from me, you must return something. Do you understand?"

"...So that's how it is."

The young man sighed:
"Good guy, so there is such a complicated thing... Hey, brother, can we bring up Yang Mi's matter today? After all... After Mr. Jin's news came out, Liu Yifei still hasn't responded."

"Can't ask."

Brother Sun rejected the young man's idea without hesitation.

He knew what the other party wanted to ask...or rather, what he wanted to know.

As early as August, during the promotion period of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", an interview was released. It was an interview with Mr. Jin. Mr. Jin probably meant "I chose Liu Yifei as the little dragon girl at the beginning, and I was worried that she was too old. Small. But later I found out that it was quite suitable, Balabala..." I boasted.

I can understand, it is to cooperate with the main creative side to promote.

Now that The Legend of Condor Heroes is over, a Taiwanese media interviewed Mr. Jin again recently, and Mr. Jin overturned his statement, saying:
"At the beginning they showed me the cutscene clips, and I thought it was pretty good. But after watching the full drama, I think they disrespected the original. They chose Liu Yifei to play the little dragon girl. Ms. Liu is indeed very beautiful, but she is afraid of changing. Ugly, I was worried that making facial expressions would affect her original appearance, so I refused to cry when filming crying scenes, and just shed a tear. I don't think it's good...

Also, I wrote in my book that when Yang Guo was in the Ancient Tomb Sect, he respected his aunt, but the actor acted like a flamboyant young man, as if he was molesting his master.This is incomprehensible and unacceptable. "

Obviously, after the publicity period passed, Mr. Jin turned the table a little bit.

Express your dissatisfaction directly.

When asked which character in the play he was most satisfied with, Mr. Jin gave the answer:
"Guo Xiang."

He felt that Guo Xiang, played by Yang Mi, was the actor who best interpreted Xiao Dongxie's innocence.

Personal words:

"The first thing Guo Xiang needs to pay attention to is the "evil spirit" of Xiao Dongxie in her body, and her boldness is second. Yang Mi's Guo Xiang is far more beautiful than Li Qihong, and her evil spirit is also more prosperous. She is the character I am most satisfied with. .”

As soon as this interview came out, although it had nothing to do with the leading actors, it was inevitable that Yang Mi and Liu Yifei were pulled out for comparison.

Fortunately, the people involved were all on the set and couldn't be interviewed, so the news died down quickly.

But even so, it was also hailed by the media as "the dispute between Liu Yifei and Yang Mi", one of the evidences that Yang Mi came from behind.

But today, Hua Yi is definitely not allowed to ask questions that have nothing to do with the movie.

So, Brother Sun said directly:

"Don't think about those who have or don't have it, you know? Just come here today and ask about the movie and it's over. Don't try to lead the fire to Liu Yifei, and don't lead it to Yang Mi. Otherwise, neither side will be pleased."

"Eh, I see."

After the two of them finished speaking, the door of the auditorium over there also opened, and the reporter was about to enter.

For young people, as a newcomer, just follow the boss's orders.Do what the boss asks you to do.Only when you know the rules can you do things well.

However... there are always some mavericks in this industry.

No, when the young reporter was diligently recording the press conference and taking pictures of Cheng Long and Li Lianjie at the same time, he suddenly heard a voice:
"Hello, I would like to ask Ms. Liu Yifei. As far as I know, the global box office of "The Unspeakable Secret" starring Yang Mi has exceeded 4.4 million. Have you ever congratulated her? And for "The King of Kung Fu" Do you have the confidence to surpass "The Untold Secret" for the domestic box office of the film alone?"

Hey!
The young man couldn't help raising his head, wanting to see which of his colleagues was so brave.

Crazy? This is.

Recalling Brother Sun's warning, he was a little speechless.

This is really ruining one's job.

After this question was asked, indeed, all the reporters were a little surprised.

this person...

Who is it?

Dare to ask this question?

But immediately the spirit head is up.

No matter who it is, ask them all.

The question is...will Liu Yifei answer!
While watching the stage, Liu Yifei was indeed taken aback for a moment.Then, the process of this question was interrupted by the field control host:
"Please ask this reporter a movie-related question, thank you. Alright, next reporter."

"..."

Liu Yifei instinctively put down the microphone again.

The press conference continues.

Unperturbed.

……

Liu Yifei's "avoiding and not talking about Yang Mi" still appeared in the news.

But for the huge online community, it doesn't hurt much.

On the contrary, in Baidu Liu Yifei Bar and Yang Mi Bar, there were some disturbances.

There was friction between the fans on both sides.

One is the so-called "my family's celestial being debut is the pinnacle".

One is "Yes, yes, your celestial beings are really low at their peak".

One is "My Mimi's first film was a global hit at the box office".

One is "Yes, yes, no matter how popular your honey is, she is only a supporting role in Tianxian".

In addition to the comments on this version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes" in Jin Yong's words, the relationship between the two fans is not too harmonious.

Therefore, because of this reporter's question that was not answered in "The King of Kung Fu", it has caused a lot of wind and clouds in the post bar these days.

However, just as the rhythm conflict became more and more turbulent, a Baidu ID named "Yang Mi" posted:
"When I first got home, I originally planned to play DOTA with a group of people. When I habitually came to the house to take a look, I saw so many discussions about me and Yifei. I originally planned to dive, but after thinking about it, I still have to say: From " We had a very good relationship when we were on the set of Condor of the Condor. Well, I’ll post a few photos and you’ll know.

【image】

【image】

【image】

【image】

Did you see it?We are inseparable, but now we are developing our own careers. Good friends should learn from each other, improve each other, supervise and work hard on each other.

A family does not speak two languages, bees.

Alright, I'm going to play DOTA.By the way, is there a big hand in the room, report your ID, I am Shadow Demon Thief 6. "

From the tradition left over from the "Super Girl" audition, artists habitually give their fans cute nicknames.

Yang Mi's fans are called "Bee".

But this is the first time she has logged into the post bar to post after registering her own ID.

Sure enough, as soon as the post appeared, the enthusiasm brought by it immediately covered up the turbulent undercurrents in all the post bars.

After adding that she actually knew that Yang Mi was a game girl, in competitive online games where female players were scarce, no one paid attention to Liu Yifei or the like in Yang Mi's posts.

One of several well-recognized game masters in the post bar posted his ID in a message, and got a private chat with Yang Mi.

then……

"Brothers! Mimi's DOTA level... is about as high as three or four floors!"

A reply, with a screenshot of VSID:FOX_YM's winning ratio, appeared in the post.

Everyone looked at the details of the more than 700 matches, with a winning rate of more than 60%...

They all fell into deep thought.

Damn, Mimi is playing DOTA... so stupid?

Immediately afterwards, the news of "Yang Mi is a game girl" covered many undercurrents and appeared on many websites.

In fact, the word "girl" is not appropriate, because Yang Mi herself is an adult.

Adults playing online games, in this era when online games are like fierce tigers, is actually not a big news.

But who makes the girl fire.

Along with this "FOX_YM" ID, is the MOBA map "DOTA", which suddenly jumped into the field of vision of many online game lovers.

Let a self-made map originally based on the framework of the WAR3 game instantly become as popular as the game itself.

The number of Baidu searches for "what is DOTA" suddenly began to rise.

Then...whether VS or Haofang, a lot of cute newcomers flooded into this game all of a sudden, not to mention, an interview report was also picked up suddenly.

It was in the WCG7 DOTA Grand Prix held in Singapore in July this year, the post-match interview session of the GL team.

When asked what kind of difficulties they encountered when going abroad for the first time, CARRY1, the No. 820 player of the GL team, mentioned:

"The biggest difficulty we encountered was the financial problem. In fact, the travel expenses for going abroad were borrowed from friends who often played together. Here I would like to thank my friend FOX_YM. It was he who learned that we were short of travel expenses after we advanced. , sponsored us 3 yuan to win this championship."

"Then next time you see FOX_YM in the game, will you release water?"

"That's definitely not the case. This brother's level is also very high. There is no such thing as letting the water go or not. But... I will let him have a big one."

And the reason why 820 said this is because he played brilliantly in this BO3, leading the opponent by a large piece of equipment in every team battle, and was described by the commentator in Singapore as "he is like a shop owner, every time he always The fast money-making speed that will pay you a big one more than you will come out to fight with you", gradually gained the nickname "8 Boss".

As soon as this interview was picked up, the two sides unexpectedly linked together in a miraculous dream.

People suddenly discovered...

Not right.

Leaving aside the fact that 820 doesn't seem to know that the ID FOX_YM is behind the girl Yang Mi, let's just talk about the level of DOTA.

Yang Mi was able to fight back and forth with the WCG champion?

What level is this?
In an instant, the girl's popularity in the entire DOTA community began to soar...

And even Yang Mi herself did not expect this.

especially……

When she received an endorsement contract from the VS platform...

And in a game, when nine people except herself were asking: "Is Yang Mi on the third floor?", "Is Yang Mi on the third floor?"...

She blinked and suddenly laughed.

"I'm not Yang Mi, I'm the Shadow Demon King!"

Then, in 10 minutes, the Shadow Demon King, who was taken care of by the top and bottom lanes and died 5 times, completely twisted his coquettish waist.

The cognition of "Shadow Demon is easy to catch, once you catch it, you will die" was born suddenly.

So much so that in the next few versions...even years later, it will have a profound impact.

All of this was unexpected by Yang Mi.

And now she is just a popular little flower with a dazed face after she readily accepted the endorsement invitation from the VS platform, and watched Zeng Jia show up the "Adidas spokesperson contract" in different ways.

"What... mean? Why does Adidas want me?"

"They feel that your sports style fits the image of their original brand Original very well. They want to sign you to be the spokesperson of the "Classic" series. Because they plan to open the third exclusive store in Asia in Sanlitun in 08..."

"Uh……"

Looking at the bewildered girl, Zeng Jia said seriously:
"Mimi, I've done some research. After you spread the sports style in Beijing Film Academy, the value potential in the field of sports brands is still great. It will help your personal business resources improve. As sports brands, Has been focusing on the field of athletes. And this clover brand pays more attention to fashion, which is in line with your positioning.

I made a business prospect estimate, and your business value improvement really needs to start to enter the fashion endorsement industry.Your appearance has already been recognized, and you are also gaining popularity in the field of video games. Boys still play more video games, and the sports brand market is dominated by men's clothing, so this contract is completely suitable for you. A stepping stone into the fashion world.

Moreover, Adidas has made great efforts to promote this new brand, and as far as I know, you are the first domestic spokesperson invited by Adidas in the professional field of film and television circles.This positioning is a huge improvement for you. You get it, but others don't.In addition, Adidas is fundamentally going to promote this brand, which is a huge increase in your value!Not only in China, you are the first Asian spokesperson. "

Hearing this, Yang Mi thought for a while and nodded:

"Okay, how many years? During this period, I can't wear other sports brands, right?"

"Yes. In terms of clothing brands, those related to the sports field are not allowed. But other things are fine... The endorsement is three years, and the contract amount... I'm still discussing the details. Your popularity determines this The price won't be low. But I have an opinion..."

"Say it."

“合同,我建议你选择1.5+1.5模式。因为,你的合约到09年五月份就到期了。而1.5+1.5则更适合你一些。”

"..."

The moment she heard this, a gleam of light flashed in Yang Mi's eyes.

He glanced at Zeng Jia, whose eyes contained deep meaning, and seemed to be revealing something.

After being silent for a few seconds, she suddenly smiled and said:

"Okay, then sister Zeng, just watch the arrangements, I completely trust you!"

So Zeng Jia was happy.

"Well, good. I'll go talk to them then."

"Uh-huh."

The girl who is about to become the first Asian spokesperson of the Adidas clover brand called Xu Xin after Zeng Jia left:
"Hey brother, let me tell you something..."

"... Coincidentally, I also want to tell you something."

Xu Xin was speechless over there:
"Have you bugged me?"

"It's all right, guess which hole it's in?"

"Ah~~~"

Speechless immediately turned into disgust.

This girl is about to become the Lich King.

"Stinking rogue."

"Hey...don't make trouble, let's talk to you about something serious. I'm going to sign an Adidas endorsement!"

"Uh……"

Hearing this, Xu Xin was a little surprised:
"Adidas?...Is it because of the outfit you were wearing that day?"

"Well, maybe. But it's not important, the important thing is! I want to make money! Oh hoo!!!"

"..."

The excited cheers from his girlfriend on the phone made Xu Xin feel disgusted for a while.

Look at the way you've never seen money.

But he also knows that in fact, although his girlfriend has played every year in the past few years, the salary is really not high.Although compared with her peers, the money she earned in the past two years is already good.

But compared with those people who easily make tens of thousands at the box office, it is really a sky and a world.

So he said:
"I want to buy a GTR."

"Buy, buy, buy for you! What else do you want!? Do you want a Rolex!"

"want!"

"Buy! Make me comfortable serving you, everything is yours!"

"..."

You see, sometimes when chatting with this sister, you don't waste cigarettes, you don't waste tea, you just waste pants.

So, in order to prevent her from letting her mind wander, Xu Xin hurriedly said:

"I've got something serious to tell you, too."

"what?"

As soon as it was serious, the escape in Yang Mi's voice disappeared.

"I have the copyright of "The Wind"."

"Wow! Yes! How much did you pay for it?"

"One hundred and five."

Xu Xin reported a number.

"So expensive!?"

Yang Mi was obviously a little surprised.

In her concept, a few hundred thousand is enough.

"It's very popular, and there are many competitors. I got the book earlier and changed the script earlier to avoid long nights and dreams."

"It's… okay."

Yang Mi thought it was over.

But Xu Xin suddenly said:

"But there is one thing in it, because I have a contract with Xiying Studio, so the copyright of this book belongs to me and him. You know?"

"know."

"Well, but because of some procedures and requirements, I was able to form a company to jointly hold with Xiying Film Studio. So, I asked Director Zhang, researched it, and decided to establish a company with Xiying Film Studio. "

"Then it will be established."

"Well, I just want to ask you... Do you want to be the boss' wife of the company..."

There was some anxiety in Xu Xin's voice.

"..."

Hearing a bomb thrown by her boyfriend unexpectedly, Yang Mi was stunned.

you……

you you you……

This……

What does this mean?
Her mind was suddenly filled with a great sense of happiness.

After realizing the meaning of these words, the dream that I had dreamed countless times in my sleep seemed to take another big step forward.

"..."

"..."

on both sides of the phone.

Speechless.

Very silent.

Let's not talk about the anxious Xu Xin, just talk about Yang Mi's side.

Her heart was about to fly.

But rather...

After being silent for a while, Xu Xin heard a long gasp.

Then, a reply rang in my ears:

"I do not want to!"

"..."

 Fourteen thousand, ask for a monthly ticket!In addition, to be honest, I know that there are many capable readers among the readers.Including all kinds of gossip, some black history, etc., maybe some readers don't know the author's heart, just like the mirror.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

But sometimes novels still have to be universal.For example, in these two chapters, the development process of Xiying Studio after 2000, and some of the rumors in King of Kung Fu back then.Some readers may have known it more than ten years ago, but there must still be more people who don’t usually care about a certain star or some things. At this time, the author’s request is to tell everyone a clear story.

So what I pursue is simple, straightforward and interesting, so that those who know can bear this kind of "water" after reading it, and explain the history to readers who don't know, and explain clearly the stories similar to the background information in the plot of the novel.After all, most people don't know.

It is definitely not water, and the plot has been moving forward.But as I said before, I am an author who likes to bury threads inadvertently, and I don’t know how to write useless plots. Sometimes some things are buried in dog food and daily life.You may not be able to see it, but at least when I want to use it later, with the foreshadowing in front, I can guarantee that the plot will not be so abrupt.This is my style.

For example, I started to bury Yang Mi's ability to play games from the public chapter, and then started to lay the groundwork for popularity a little bit. In this chapter, I got the support of e-sports players who were not recognized at the time, that's what I meant.Even at the time it seemed like he was counting on the water.

So, don't worry everyone.
