Xu Laowei should be the director who is the best at filming women in the Chinese film industry.

Bai Suzhen played by Wang Zhuxian in "Green Snake" is full of charm, tenacity and composure. Zhang Yanyu's Xiaoqing is innocent and ignorant, charming and enchanting.

In the "Once Upon a Time" series, Guan Zhiyang's thirteenth aunt is a classic in her film history, and she is also one of the few roles that can make the audience get her acting skills.

Zhang Baizhi in "The Legend of Shu Mountain" is dressed in white, full of fairy spirit and heroic spirit of dancing knives and swords.

The spider spirit played by Wang Likun in "Journey to the West" has long legs and charming, which left a deep impression on the audience.

Lin Qingyao in "Undefeated in the East" is really too classic, so there is no need to say more.

Even Yang Tianbao, who has no acting skills, performed quite amazingly in "Di Renjie's Divine Dragon King".

It can be seen that Mr. Xu is really good at shooting women, and he can always leave a glorious female character image for the film industry.

It is Jing Yan and Ying Bao who are full of expectations for Longlin's version of "Daughter Country". At the beginning of September, on the day of the company's internal viewing meeting, there were quite a few people coming.

The total investment of this film is 600 million, Longlin Pictures contributed 200 million, Bo Na and Wan Da each contributed 100 million, Penguin Pictures and Ahri each contributed 80 million, and Xu Ke himself contributed 40 million.

So on the day of the film meeting, Yu Dong of Bona, Jiang Wei, CEO of Wanda Pictures, Chen Wu of Penguin Pictures, and Fan Luyuan of Ahri Pictures. and director Xu Ke, producer and starring Lu Lin, together with Song Ge, Zhao Liying and Da Xiangyan, who played the scorpion spirit in the film, were all present.

However, it is said that the character of the scorpion spirit, in the original work of "Journey to the West", is an extremely beautiful banshee, known as the "Wind and Moon Demon".

The beauty of the scorpion essence is described in many places in the book, saying that she is beautiful and delicate, beautiful with gold beads, fragrant skin and greasy skin, and warm and fragrant nephrite. Even the appearance of the whole book as Elder Tang looks rough and rough in front of her.

And after she caught Tang Seng, she talked to Tang Seng verbally, so that Sun Wukong was afraid that Tang Seng would not be able to hold it.

The original book describes: "The walker listens to the two words climbing in the lattice eye, I am afraid that the master will mess up the true nature, and he can't help it, and he shows his true appearance."

Tang Seng encountered a lot of temptations on the way to the west, but most of them can be called not close to women. But Wukong was worried that Elder Tang couldn't resist the temptation, which showed that the beauty of the scorpion spirit was extremely outstanding.

And throughout the film, Xu Ke obviously noticed this point in the original book, and used a lot of close-ups to show the beauty of the scorpion essence. Judging from the time alone, Jing Yan's role is not much less than that of the heroine Zhao Liying.

Because in this movie, although the scorpion spirit played by Da Xiangyan is a big boss with high mana, he still has an emotional line with Tang Seng.

The plot changed in the script is: In Tang Seng's previous life, when he was the second disciple of the Buddha, Jin Chanzi, he pleaded for the scorpion that stung the Buddha with an inverted horse poison pile. The scorpion spirit always read this paragraph, and only then waited for Tang Seng on the side of the Xiliang Women's Country, wanting to fly with Elder Tang.

However, learning from the scriptures is the main line of the story, whether it is the daughter of the country or the scorpion spirit, in the end, it will not be possible.

In the small internal screening room of Longlin Pictures, after the 123-minute broadcast of "Daughter Country", Yu Dong took the lead in applauding, got up and said with a smile: "Yes, Director Xu did a good job in this film, and a few of them acted well!"

Chen Wu said with a smile: "If you want me to say, Director Lu's Tang Seng acted well, and when he performed Tang Seng's inner struggle, I think there is hope to win a few actors!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and the one who played against Lu Lin in the film was Zhao Liying, who had a scandal in the early years, and the other was his current wife, coupled with the plot in the film, anyone would struggle very much!

Lu Lin smiled indifferently, "If you want me to say, Director Xu is still shooting well, Jing Yan and Li Ying's looks in the film are very beautiful, I believe that after the release, there will be a good response!"

Jiang Wei, the new CEO of Wanda Pictures, asked: "Director Lu, how much do you think this film can reach at the box office?"

said that in the past few years, after the resignation of the first boss Song Ge, the first person in Wanda Pictures, the boss has been frequently replaced. Especially since 2015, three general managers and six deputy general managers of Wanda Pictures have left one after another.

The specific reason is rumored to be performance pressure. Although Wanda Pictures is currently in the first-tier ranks in China, its main control ability has always been lacking, and it is basically in a state of co-investment.

Longlin Pictures does not attach much importance to the profit requirements of "Daughter Country", but Wanda Pictures attaches great importance to it.

This time, I came to participate in a small-scale film viewing party, mainly to see how the shooting effect was, to estimate the approximate box office, and to have a bottom in my heart.

Lu Lin glanced at Jiang Wei unexpectedly, shook his head slightly and smiled: "It's really hard to say this, but I think it's okay to get back to the basics!"

Jiang Wei was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Back to the basics? You Longlin Pictures hated to make 10 billion last year, and it doesn't matter if you don't make a film." If my earnings numbers aren't good, I'm going to have to figure out how to leave my job!"

Yu Dong said: "If you want me to say, in the domestic market of this piece, it is no problem to get 256 or higher, or even rush to 3 billion." ”

Jiang Wei hurriedly asked, "Old Yu, how do you say this?"

Chen Wu, Fan Luyuan and others also looked over curiously, while Yu Dong glanced at the relatively silent Xu Laowei and said with a smile:

"I'm mainly comparing this with "The Demon Chapter", Director Xu and Director Lu have joined forces, and the box office appeal is greater than that of Director Xu and Zhou Xingxing. The acting skills and box office appeal of the main creators, Director Lu, Jing Xiang, Li Ying, and Wu Jing are too much stronger than Wu Yifan and Lin Terrier. The fight scenes and special effects are also far more than that.

The schedule, one is the National Day and the other is the Spring Festival, and then counting the fierce competition, this piece can be regarded as a draw.

Journey to the West can break 1.6 billion, I think this one, how can it also start from 2.6 billion. Don't rush anything else, Director Shan Lu appeared on the big screen for the first time after marriage, and played Tang Seng and Scorpion Jing with Jing Xiang respectively, and the box office can also increase by 200 million!"

When everyone present heard this, they all laughed. Thinking about the rivalry between Jing Yan and Lu Lin that I saw just now, I couldn't hold back my laughter.

And Zhao Liying, the first heroine of this film, is relatively "miserable", although the daughter she plays is glamorous, full of girlishness, and very eye-catching.

But in front of the scorpion spirit who dares to love and hate, is glamorous, has outstanding martial arts, has high mana, dares to scare the Buddha, is not afraid of the Bodhisattva, is not afraid of Wukong and Bajie, and is known as the copper skin and iron bones and steel Wukong, who is stinging, is not brilliant enough.

However, she originally wanted to film "Daughter Country", but she wanted to play a rival scene with Lu Lin.

In retrospect, this film is quite similar to reality. She, the daughter of the country, took the initiative, and the elder Tang seemed to have affection, but he didn't take the initiative or refuse.

If it develops slowly, she still has some opportunities. A scorpion spirit jumped out of the air in the clinker, and he grabbed Elder Tang ...... in one hand.
