I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 161 The final box office of "Under the Hawthorn Tree"!
"Who do you think would be the best president?"

Zhou Xiaobin, the actor who played Da Zhou in "The Story of the Kitchen Team", was wearing the uniform of the 50th Regiment of the Restoration New Army and asked Chen Jin who was sitting nearby reading a newspaper.

Chen Jin straightened his shoulders and slowly put away the newspaper. He was also wearing a military uniform.

The whole person's spirit and energy are different from the one taken in the morning.

This is the protagonist's brief life as a recruit when he joined the army at the age of 18. He was the first to sign up to join the th regiment of the new army.

"Mr. Sun Wen!"

Chen Jin smiled, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

After saying this, he clenched his fist in approval.

"Then why did it suddenly become Yuan?"

Zhou Xiaobin asked back in confusion.

"..."

Chen Jin lowered his head to glance at the newspaper. The camera then zoomed in, giving him a very clear frontal view.

Different from the determined young man who was full of vigor in the morning, he seemed a little depressed and his face was a little rough. The life of a recruit was obviously not what he dreamed of.

Although the spirit in his eyes remained the same, he couldn't help but laugh at himself when he heard Zhou Xiaobin's question.

"He has a gun in his hand~~~"

Swish!
Chen Jin clutched the newspaper tightly, then walked away without looking back.

The pace is steady, which is different from the walking in the morning.

But that straight back became even more resolute.

This was his last day in the 50th Regiment of the New Army. After serving in the army for half a year, he chose to retire.

"Crack!"

Han Sanpin waved his hand and looked at the scene, which had been filmed for the third time, with satisfaction.

"This military training before joining the group is different!"

“I feel like a soldier now!”

Han Sanpin smiled. The performance just now was designed by Chen Jin himself.

Including some changes in makeup.

What he strives for is the overall state difference of a person who has been a soldier for half a year. Han Sanpin did not expect Chen Jin to have such high demands on himself, but the feeling of Chen Jin's performance completely convinced Han Sanpin.

Actors who think will always get a little favor from the director.

It is obvious that Chen Jin has thought these scenes through carefully and has a good grasp of the role and the differences between the times.

There are so many characters in "The Founding of a Party", but the leading male character has to grow from 18 to 28 years old, with only 40 minutes of scenes to portray his ten years. So every scene in these ten years may have a change.

It is the sublimation of his thoughts on this society and his life experience.

“Call it over and call it a day!”

The stagehand was shouting that all of Chen Jin's scenes had been filmed today.

3 days' supply, completed in one day.

Tomorrow I will be filming a scene at Hunan Normal University No. 1, which will include interactions with Li Xuejian, Li Wei, Pan Yuemin, and Yang Yang.

This section is also very important in the movie.

His ideological enlightenment and major changes in his life will all take place here.

His teacher Yang Changji had a profound influence on him.

He even made him his son-in-law and personally arranged this marriage for his daughter.

"Hi!"

Li Xi suddenly put his hands behind his back, looked at Chen Jin who walked out of the dressing room after putting on makeup, and couldn't help but move forward to say hello.

There was still a little restrained look on his face.

It’s not that she was embarrassed to see Chen Jin.

Actors are not that pretentious, many of them are very relaxed because acting requires it.

The first lesson in acting is about liberating your nature.

You can’t act well if you can’t let go.

But it was Chen Jin's performance that day that made Li Xi feel hesitant to approach her.

It wasn't until Chen Jin took off her makeup that she had the courage to talk to him.

Besides, Chen Jin was so absorbed in the role that she didn't dare to disturb him. If he said something like "Standing alone in the cold autumn, the Xiang River flows northward...", Li Wei would have to kneel down immediately.

Now, after removing her makeup, Li Xi came forward with eager eyes.

"What's wrong, fellow countryman? Why are you so reserved?"

Seeing that Li Xi was a little serious, Chen Jin grinned.

Li Yan was relieved when he heard Chen Jin speak like this: "No, it's because you acted so well that I dare not talk to you!"

"Really? Then how do you do this?"

Chen Jin followed her towards the crew's shuttle bus.

"What's going on?"

Li Qi thought this person was so strange. Sometimes what he said was hard to understand. Could it be that he... had a low level of cultural literacy?
Don’t understand what the top scorer in the college entrance examination said?

"The role you play is my girlfriend, future wife!"

"You don't even dare to talk to me, what's the point of talking about love?"

"Ha ha!"

Li Xi smiled a little, in fact, she was quite pretty, she had two long braids specially for the role, and she was wearing the school uniform of students in the Republic of China era, she looked younger and more beautiful than she looked.

The 20-year-old with no makeup on is quite resilient.

"Am I wrong?"

Chen Jin was holding a cell phone with many unread messages on it.

"Yes, I accept it humbly, and I will try to adapt to it tomorrow!"

“Filming starts tomorrow!”

Chen Jin said casually, but saw the message sent by Pu Lun.

“It’s over 3 million!”

"Under the Hawthorn Tree", as of now, the total box office has finally exceeded 3 million.

It took 24 days.

The box office reached 1 million in less than 6 days.

2 million, and it took 12 days!
The second weekend's box office was more than the first weekend.

During the National Day holiday, the daily box office, which had originally fallen below 500 million, has seen another wave of growth. The box office for these four days has exceeded 700 million.

The final box office should be between 3.2 million and 3.3 million.

This is definitely a very impressive box office data.

It is currently ranked fourth on the 2010 Chinese film box office list, ahead of it are "Avatar" with 13.78 billion, "Aftershock" with 6.65 million, and "Inception" with 4.16 million!
Strictly speaking, these three are all commercial films.

The box office of "The Hawthorn Tree", an art film, has indeed exceeded market expectations. Key is that the ratings on Douban and Time.com are also very good.

7.9, 7.7 points!
Chen Jin's third child was loved and admired by many audiences.

His current number of real fans has soared to 9, but unfortunately there is no gender ratio. Chen Jin thinks there should be 8 female fans.

It's just outrageous. The number of followers on Weibo is about to break 150 million, of which 97 are female.

What Chen Jin says most every day is to give me a boyfriend like the third brother.

The best man of the year.

Sometimes when Chen Jin was browsing Weibo, he often saw people discussing that this role brought him a lot of traffic.

The box office of "The Hawthorn Tree" exceeded 3 million yuan, and even reached a daily box office of nearly 1000 million yuan during the National Day holiday. This was entirely the result of this character becoming popular.

"Because the shooting starts tomorrow, I have to adapt tomorrow, right?"

Li Wei sat next to Chen Jin and saw that he was suddenly very happy. He couldn't help but ask, "Girlfriend's information?"

"broker!"

Chen Jin waved the phone in front of her. When she saw the 3 million, she understood instantly: "Under the Hawthorn Tree?"

“Do I have any other works besides this one?”

"Haha, congratulations, that's amazing. I've seen that movie too, and you acted really well!"

Li Wei admitted it sincerely, and she even cried in the end.

"There are many fans who like Lao San on the Internet!"

Li Wei would read the reviews after watching a movie. Chen Jin smiled and said, "Yes, they all like the characters. I have people leaving comments on Weibo every day to guide the discussion!"

[Chen Jin, please give me a third child. ]

This is the one with the most comments. Now Chen Jin’s Weibo is like a wishing well.

A bunch of girls were posting comments there. Fortunately, fan culture is still only popular among a few artists on Mango TV.

Otherwise, Chen Jin would have to hire someone to control the comments. It is indeed not good to have too many female fans.

These women don’t know how to do anything else but love to eat melons and quarrel. Real male fans have purchasing power.

Although women have a high spending power when it comes to watching movies, male fans also have strong spending power.

The peripheral products of "The Wandering Earth" are selling well.

"That means you acted well!"

"I feel like you'll gain a lot of male fans after The Founding of a Party is released!"

Li Wei analyzed it from the perspective of performance.

But the actual situation may not be so.

"Not necessarily~~"

Chen Jin shook his head. He was not optimistic about the current Internet environment. He believed that it would take a few more years before netizens would begin to feel more and more that certain people were great.

Now most people are cursing.

"By the way, fellow countryman, how did you play the role so well?"

Li Wei suddenly started discussing performance with Chen Jin.

"Analyze, watch more video materials, write a biography, analyze on your own..."

Chen Jin could say these words almost at will.

"..."

Li Xi's expression suddenly turned bitter.

Chen Jin knew that she definitely didn't read it.

Although her role is crucial, she does not have many scenes. Chen Jin is not sure how long the final version will be. But judging from the script alone, she only has a dozen scenes, many of which are in one scene.

For many actors, if they are not the male or female protagonists, they will not do too much research at all.

Maybe in their opinion, no matter how well the role is played, it will not become popular.

The philosophy of their agency is that they would rather take on more dramas, participate in more variety shows, and get some endorsements, rather than focusing on small roles.

There are only small actors, no small roles.

Not many people take this statement seriously now.

In fact, if a supporting role in a drama is played well, it can really become popular.

Especially popular dramas like "The Founding of a Party".

The future will prove this more and more.

Some people can rely on one role for their whole life, even if it is a small supporting role, if the audience likes the performance, they will remember it deeply.

"Li Xian Ji" should thank Mr. You Benchang. The last few seconds of eye contact, without a single line of dialogue, was enough to raise the rating of the show by several points.

One look saved a mediocre or even broken movie.

This is the charm of acting.

Unfortunately, there are not many people in the domestic entertainment industry who understand this; or the actors do understand it, but they don’t have the time to calm down and do it, and no company is willing to let them think about a role in this way.

The purpose of an agency is to make money, not to support people.

The agency is really important to the growth of an artist; between being profit-driven or pursuing long-term development, many people choose the former.

Rather than saying that the entertainment industry is impetuous, it is better to say that this is a path chosen by entertainment capital itself.

"I don't know where to find this information, and the company didn't provide it!"

"You'll have to figure this out yourself..."

Chen Jin thought about it, and finally decided to tell the other party some information he knew in order to save energy for filming tomorrow.

Li Xi listened very carefully, feeling as if he was being enlightened by someone.

So, this is the kind of person I'm going to play?

She always thought that all she had to do was play the role of a young, naive girl who was just beginning to fall in love.

Unexpectedly, after Chen Jin analyzed the historical background and the characters' roles, she understood why this character liked the male protagonist.

Because both of them have a compassionate heart.

"My friend, you are really awesome!"

After listening to it all the way, Li Wei was still thinking about it after arriving at the hotel.

Sometimes it’s not difficult to play a role, what’s difficult is whether you take the time to understand the role.

In fact, the more you know, the more confident you will be in playing the role.

If you have a talent for acting, you will be able to master it quickly.

Li Wei’s talent is not actually in acting. Many of her future roles will be very similar, as if she is playing herself. Some people do not have professional training, so they are still quite different. Not everyone is like Zhou Xun.

How much effort was put into cultivating the fifth generation of Du Liniang, but she was given up just like that. The dean of the Kunqu Opera Academy in Shanghai almost hired someone to ban her.

If Li Wei can settle down in the opera field for a while, it might be better for him to switch to the small screen.

But these are none of Chen Jin’s business. He just doesn’t want anyone to hold him back during the performance, so he tries his best to help the other person improve their performance.

After returning to the hotel, Chen Jin started his routine exercise, and Guo Xun's call finally came.

The post-production of "Love Is Not Blind" was finally completed. Guo Xun immediately asked the teachers at the Beijing Film Academy to help submit it for review, while he flew to Changsha to confirm the final details of the drama with Chen Jin.

Chen Jin told him that he had to take a look at the finished film.

Also, Bao Jingjing is responsible for editing the film with Guo Xun.

The reason why Teng Huatao's version of "Love Is Not Blind" is so popular is that it is not much different from Bao Jingjing's original work.

He filmed it almost exactly according to the original book!
