Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 262 This is not how you act as a sissy

The box office performance of "The Beauty Inside" is a typical fan-oriented type.

It earned 4 million in 5800 days, making a profit immediately. However, the screening schedule and attendance both dropped. In addition, with big blockbusters like "Warring States" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" being released one after another to compete for screening schedules, "The Beauty Inside" basically could not rise in the mid-term.

It finally closed with 7720 million.

It still made money, so making another film of the same type, "Introduction to Architecture", while the iron is hot, is also in line with market rules.

Although "Introduction to Architecture" was not widely publicized, most people in the industry and fans knew that Liu Yifei's next drama would be a romance film.

But Red Star House suddenly started promoting another new film of Liu Yifei.

"Liu Yifei received an audition invitation from Hollywood Legendary Pictures, competing with actresses from all over the world for roles."

"The reporter confirmed with Liu Yifei's agent that Liu Yifei did receive an invitation from Legendary Pictures and that Liu Yifei herself flew to Los Angeles the day before yesterday. However, the agent said that it was not convenient to disclose which blockbuster it was for the time being."

"Liu Yifei's new film is about to start shooting, and there is news of another big film. Since the release of "In Time", Liu Yifei has been constantly getting resources. "The Beauty Inside" made nearly 2000 million at the box office with a cost of 8000 million. Her new film "Architecture " is on the verge of being released. Hollywood has invited Liu Yifei to audition again. It is rumored that the director of the new film will be Hollywood genius director Guillermo del Toro. After Liu Yifei's good fortune, her resources have skyrocketed, making people jealous."

"According to industry sources, the audition invitation was because Legendary Pictures CEO Thomas Tull was impressed by Liu Yifei's temperament after watching In Time and thought that Liu Yifei was very suitable for the new film. Liu Yifei has flown to Los Angeles to meet with the producer and director."

Such advance publicity is necessary. After the release of "In Time", Liu Yifei has been exposed a lot and has a high voice, but it is not enough!

How can the King's return be all low-budget films like "The Beauty Inside" and "Architecture 101"? Although these films are also resources that actresses of the same age can only dream of, Liu Yifei's positioning should not be like this. Li Qiutang wants to make her a top vase in commercial films, and a super-produced Hollywood blockbuster is just the right choice.

Is it not nice to be a big vase? How many actresses want to be one but have not been able to do so.

If "Pacific Rim" was given to Zhang Ziyi, do you think she would be willing to be a vase?

Liu Yifei’s resources are so good that they really make people jealous.

Among the four young actresses back then, only Liu Yifei can be truly considered a movie star. Huang Shengyi has not been heard from for several years. The market is looking forward to her performance in this year's "Legend of White Snake".

Yang Mi became very popular this year with "Palace", and she has been offered many movies. I heard that she will be acting in "The Banquet" directed by Lu Chuan. (This is not made up by the author. Yang Mi really said she wanted to act in it and even went to the opening ceremony)

Wang Luodan is still acting in TV series.

Some actors in the circle are jealous, some are envious, which are normal emotions, but there are also many who are resentful.

The pie for young actresses is so small, and the resources are already scarce. You've been silent for two years, and now you take such a big bite. Film contracts are secondary. Liu Yifei is so popular after filming the movie that she will snatch endorsements from female stars of the same age. This is destroying someone's financial resources and killing their parents!
Fortunately, Liu Yifei has stopped accepting commercial performances since this year, otherwise she would have taken away more cake.

Liu Yifei auditioned for "Pacific Rim" in Los Angeles. Although she had already got the role, she still communicated seriously with the casting team.

The audition was conducted entirely in English, and I rehearsed two scenes and did physical and action tests under the supervision of a coach.

Although she got in through the back door, Liu Yifei's qualities are beyond doubt and she is indeed very suitable for "Pacific Rim".

The entire audition lasted 130 minutes. The casting team asked Liu Yifei to go back, saying that her performance was very good, but they would have another round of auditions later.

The next round of auditions will be held in China. The crew will send a small team to China to scout locations and give Liu Yifei the final round of auditions.

Liu Yifei naturally agreed.

Liu Yifei returned after staying in the United States for a week and flew directly to Shanghai, where the filming of "Introduction to Architecture" started.

At the opening ceremony of "Introduction to Architecture", Liu Yifei was interviewed by reporters.

"It's said online that you went to Hollywood to audition for a new movie. Can you tell us what movie it is?" Liu Yifei said, "Isn't it all online? I saw that the online reports are quite comprehensive."

"What play is it exactly?"

"I can't tell you yet. I might not be able to meet you yet. It's not a good idea to tell you in advance, haha."

The reporter returned to "Introduction to Architecture": "What are your special feelings about shooting two romance films in a row?"

"It's okay, it's all work."

"So after filming two romance movies in a row, have you ever thought about your love life? Are you worried about getting married?"

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't be unable to get married."

"The scandal between you and Lang Lang..." The reporter wanted to ask this.

But the staff stopped him in time: "Thank you everyone..."

However, Liu Yifei said, "No, no, you can talk about this." Looking at the reporter, "Don't rehash old news again, it's boring." After saying this, she burst into laughter.

"Pifu" also restarted filming in the cloud in the past few days.

There was no ceremony for the restart, and no media, but Li Qiutang made a simple speech: "We are restarting, please work hard, everyone."

Then I started to prepare for the startup.

Then the investor and male protagonist Huang Xiaoming was scolded by him.

"Why are you acting like this? You look handsome, don't you? Where did you learn all these bad habits? What's the future of being an idol handsome guy for life?"

Huang Xiaoming might not be unaware that Li Qiutang had deliberately captured him to establish his authority, but he could only accept it.

After talking about Huang Xiaoming, Li Qiutang directed his criticism at the Taiwanese actor Bao Xiaobai. However, he was not a professional actor after all, so Li Qiutang did not say anything harsh, but just taught him: "This is not how you act a sissy. Does it mean you act sissy if you hold your voice and curl your fingers? What I want is a feminine and charming posture.

"Have you seen If You Are the One? Mr. Feng Yuanzheng played Jianguo very well. He didn't pinch his voice, but his every move was like a sissy."

Feng Yuanzheng acted well, and his way of playing a sissy is not difficult to learn. You don’t have to be an experienced artist to do that.

Ordinary actors can also follow suit if they study it carefully.

After Li Qiutang finished speaking, she also gave a live teaching and demonstrated it to Bao Xiaobai.

Li Qiutang didn't hum her voice, didn't raise her orchid finger, and didn't even twist her butt. She just walked around Huang Xiaoming, gently stroked Huang Xiaoming's back, and said softly: "Boss, the water is ready, I'll rub your back."

Li Qiutang's eyes and posture are good, and she really looks like one.

Huang Xiaoming responded: "Get lost!"

"Hahahahahaha!"

The whole audience laughed. Li Qiutang laughed too, breaking up the act and saying, "You understand? If you want to act like this, everyone can speak with a pinched throat. You are still a bandit after all. Whose bandit family is so feminine? Black Dog and Liangliang don't have your mother."

Everyone laughed even more happily. The great director would not eat people, and the scene was quite relaxed.
