Chapter 192: Film Festival

The filming plan of "Wolf Warrior" is mainly based on scenes, with Lu Lin filming room scenes and a small number of gunfight scenes in Thailand first.

At this time, Wu Jing and others' emergency military training in China was almost over, and they went to Thailand to meet Lu Lin to shoot the scene of special forces going abroad to fight.

When the scenes in Thailand are over, I will return to China to shoot the special training of the Wolf Warrior Squadron, eliminate the inbound mercenaries, kill Bukit and other scenes, and the filming will be completed.

Among them, the most difficult to shoot, and the biggest attraction of the whole film, is to go abroad to fight. After all, there are restrictions on domestic scenes, but when you go abroad, you can wave a little, how to overburn and how to come.

said that in the blink of an eye, it was April, Lu Lin was still filming in Thailand, and Wu Jing's military training was about to end. Director Feng's "Private Custom" was launched in Qiongzhou, but it was able to be released this year, but it won the box office and lost word of mouth.

Zhang Yimu is in contact with Zhang Zhao of Leshi Films, and will join in May if nothing else, but it is certain that he will be absent from this year's film market.

Jiang Wen is preparing for "One Step Away", which can be called his "myth", and it will be released next year.

Chen Kaige is polishing the script of "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", which is also a work that has been unanimously complained about after the release.

These big directors are estimated to be "making a reversal" at the same time, and none of the new films being filmed at the moment can be called masterpieces.

The 13-year-old Chinese film market has also shown signs of continuous "water reversal", but it is just covered up by the prosperity brought by the rapid growth of the overall box office, and many people have not yet realized it.

March and April are traditionally off-seasons, and there are really not many films worth mentioning. In March, the one that attracted a little attention from the industry was "Yanjing Meets Seattle". In fact, as a decent love story, the film itself is not so good, and the values are also very doubtful.

But the film was too successful at the box office, and finally 520 million, setting a new record for Chinese romance films. An uncle-type actor began to be well-known to more audiences, and his personality collapsed a few years later.

There were also no decent Chinese-language films in April, most of which were not worth mentioning. However, directed by Zhao Yanzi and released the glamorously released "To Our Dying Youth", which is being hotly promoted, and finally won 700 million box office.

The film has nothing to talk about in terms of story deconstruction, character building, and emotional logic, and its biggest "contribution" to Chinese films is to use the box office of 700 million to bring out a lot of Chinese youth films.

In the following years, Chinese youth films grew savagely, appearing on the screen, flooding, playing routines, and sprinkling dog blood. Such an unobtrusive operation naturally gradually consumes the audience's patience. Chinese youth films have also been sought after by everyone at the beginning, but in the end, no one cares.

One more thing to mention is that the eldest king called and asked if he had time to attend the premiere of "To Youth". Lu Lin smiled, and returned the pearl to three beauties, of course he was not available!

The reason why Wang Changtian invited him was because Lu Lin was going back to Beijing to attend the closing ceremony of the "Capital University Student Film Festival" on the evening of April 20, and the premiere ceremony of "To Youth" was just scheduled for April 21.

On April 19, Lu Lin took his assistant Gao Wen to fly from Bangkok to Yanjing, and the role in Thailand was completely handed over to Wu Jing and Li Zhongzhi. After all, these two are the real directors, and Lu Lin is not good at taking the lead all the time.

I went to the capital for a night, and the next day I went to Longlin Pictures to chat with Song Ge about the company's recent situation, and then rushed to the Olympic Sports Center in the evening.

It is said that when you go to the awards ceremony, you have to walk the red carpet, and most of them will bring a female companion. Or a real-life lover, or a partner in the entry. However, Lu Lin is single in reality, and the heroine in "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" is a virtual actor, so she can only walk the red carpet alone.

"Director Lu, really don't you want to contact Miss Jing Yan? I look at her Weibo, people should be in the capital now!" Gao Wen, as an assistant, always felt that Lu Lin's current identity was not good for walking the red carpet alone.

Lu Lin thought for a while and said, "It's still not necessary!"

After a short time, the car arrived at the Olympic Sports Center and drove to the award venue of the film festival. Lu Lin got out of the car from a distance and walked towards the red carpet. The reporters saw it from afar, and they came in a swarm.

is really because since the global box office of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" exceeded 1 billion US dollars, Lu Lin has appeared in public and has been interviewed by the media too few times.

"Hello Director Lu, do you think "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun" can beat "1942" and win the best picture?"

"Director Lu, "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" is your first self-directed and self-starred film, do you have the confidence to win the two awards of Best Director and Best Actor!"

Lu Lin naturally gave a very official and polite answer, and at the same time strode towards the red carpet. The reporters kept following, taking pictures and asking questions.

There are actors who are in front or have just arrived, and they are all amazed by Lu Lin's popularity. Lu Lin walked in front of Wang Quan'an and Zhang Yuqi, and their work "White Deer Plain" was shortlisted.

"Wow, this scene is so exaggerated!" Zhang Yuqi couldn't help but turn around, seeing that Lu Lin was followed by too many reporters, and sighed in her unique tone.

Wang Quan'an naturally felt that his face was gloomy, and he snorted and said, "What's so beautiful!"

Zhang Yuqi turned her head forward and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "It's nothing to look at, but this feeling is really cool!"

The muscles on Wang Quanan's face trembled slightly, and said, "Hurry up, go in and find a location!"

Besides, when Lu Lin entered the venue, there was a lady of etiquette to guide him to his seat, but it was the first row, the director's seat. There are Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, Guan Yu, Wang Quanan, Xu Zheng, Ning Hao and other directors, who basically attended with their wives, but Lu Lin was alone.

When Lu Lin sat down, he couldn't say hello to Xu Zheng beside him, and the bodyguard in the back row smiled and said: "Ah, Director Lu, you're here too, I thought you would stay in Thailand to film, and I didn't have time to come over!"

Film festivals and awards in the mainland have always been a bit of a stretch. As a result, people in the circle don't give much face, and it is common for celebrities to be absent. For example, "Journey to the West" and "The Grandmaster", which were also shortlisted, did not have big names in attendance.

Lu Lin glanced at the woman next to him, and thought that these two would appear in Cannes in more than 20 days and show their affection on the red carpet, and he really wanted to remind him. But he still held back and said with a smile: "Well, by the way, congratulations, bodyguard, you have been nominated for the most popular actor!"

The bodyguard said: "Oh, it's just a nomination, whether you can win the award or not!"

Lu Lin smiled indifferently and said, "Yes!" He immediately turned his head to Xu Zheng beside him and said, "By the way, Old Xu, what have you been busy with lately?"
