Chapter 355: Press Conference Q&A
"In fact, it is not uncommon to see urban romance movies that focus on emotion, but Berlin audiences pay more attention to realistic films, which is related to the atmosphere and theme of the festival, and everyone ignores this theme, if you look carefully, you will definitely find a lot of Chinese romance movies that will surprise you. Erdongsheng groaned for a moment and spoke.
"The reason for shooting this movie is actually very simple, when Zhou Bai brought the movie script to me, I was immediately attracted by this story, a love movie with soft sci-fi meaning, the excitement of the story made me take over the director's position without hesitation, I even told Zhou Bai, I like this movie so much, I want to shoot it anyway, fortunately he also thinks so, and now seeing everyone's reaction after watching the movie, I think I did a good job. Er Dongsheng finally said playfully, causing a burst of laughter from the reporters present.
"What do you think of the two actors, Zhou Bai and Gong Li, the chemistry between Qiao and Gu in the movie is fascinating, how do you ensure their state during the filming?" asked a French reporter who raised his hand, he was more concerned about the director's evaluation of the actors.
"Zhou Bai and Gong Li are both very professional actors, they made a lot of preparations before the start of filming, and had full communication, so after the start of filming, they were in very good condition, almost without me talking about the drama, they solved the problem of acting, so it is a great luck for me to be able to meet the two of them.
How good they are, I think many people have appreciated it in the movie, usually I only require 90 points for a scene, but the two of them can perform to 98 or even 100 points, so there will be a different Gong Li and the impressive Zhou Bai in the movie, it can be said that they have dedicated a classic performance that can stand the test of time, and it will not be too much to praise in any way. ”
"Not only the two of them, but the other actors in our film are also very good, whether it is Miss Fan Bingbing, Miss Miao Pie or Mr. Feng Shaofeng sitting next to me, they all gave a wonderful performance to the audience, they are definitely one of the few outstanding actors in China, these young people have a bright future. ”
Er Dongsheng's speech was not short, but there was no reporter to interrupt, and Fan Bingbing Miao and Feng Shaofeng were very happy after being praised by Er Dongsheng, and when they were introduced, there was a burst of applause below, this kind of affirmation was really intoxicating.
Er Dongsheng smiled, the emotion in his eyes flashed, the cooperation with Zhou Bai is the most comfortable one since he engaged in film creation, the two people have the same view of the movie, the filming and creation of the movie are handed over to him, the performance is handed over to Zhou Bai, and there is sufficient financial support behind him, it's not too cool.
The most important thing is that there was no intrigue among the crew, the control of the crew was very smooth, and even Zhou Bai obeyed his command unconditionally in shooting, but the hearts of the whole crew were on the movie, and the effect was naturally gratifying.
As an old man in the film industry, Er Dongsheng has seen too many messy things, and the crew members don't tear too much for the sake of treatment and position, they all say that the crew is a Jianghu, which is not bad at all, if someone really regards the entertainment industry as a paradise for pure artistic creation, it is definitely an idiot's idea.
Sometimes it is not uncommon for two actors to dislike each other, secretly compete with each other, and still act in front of the camera with various intimate appearances, and even for makeup time, assistant equipment, and performance positions can be torn in various ways, and the trouble will affect the state of shooting, which has a great impact on film creation.
Actors are very professional does not mean that they will be easy to get along with in the crew, they are all ordinary people, strong professional ability does not mean that this person is a good-tempered person who is easy to wait, not to mention that the entertainment industry is glamorous, many people don't get carried away too much after getting aspirated, and besides, there are all kinds of competition in the entertainment industry, how can there be any fuel-efficient lamp.
During the filming of "Painless Lovelorn", none of the contradictions between the actors were open-faced, Zhou Bai and Gong Li communicated very smoothly, the two male and female No. 1 did not come out of the moth, and the other actors were much easier to handle, plus Zhou Bai's flexible wrists, there were no troublesome contradictions in the crew, and it was naturally stable.
"My question is for Miss Gong Li, first of all, congratulations on your wonderful performance in the movie, which is very surprising, it can be said that you have broken through your previous image on the screen, compared to other movies that have already met the audience, your outstanding performance is impressive, are you confident of winning the acting award?" asked an Italian in non-standard English, first praising Gong Li a lot, and then asking a short question.
Zhou Bai almost laughed out loud when he sat on the stage, which is the reporter's question, this handsome Italian guy's eyes are about to burst into pink hearts Okay, the eyes he looked at Gong Li were definitely the kind of admiration that looked at the goddess.
It's no wonder that after Gong Li won the film in Venice in 92, the age of this reporter is not young, maybe she was there at the time, if Gong Li can get the Berlin movie queen this time, it will prove that her strength is extraordinary, and this reporter is definitely happy to see it.
"Thank you for the affirmation, I have to say that your words make me very happy, and it also makes me even more glad to be able to take this film, if my performance in the film can surprise the audience, then I think I have completed my task, as for the acting award is the judges' business, I am very satisfied with my performance, I have worked very hard to create this role, if I can get recognition, it is a wonderful thing, whether I can win the acting award or not, as long as the audience likes it, I think I have succeeded, right?”
Gong Li's English is very good, she is definitely very fluent, and her modest and confident answers made the reporters applaud her, and it can be said that she once again conquered European journalists with her performance and elegant and confident performance.
Yuan Lei also applauded, she was convinced, the mainland actress can hold the façade, no matter what kind of controversy she has, as an actor, she is absolutely impeccable in performance, no one dares to assert whether she can get the Berlin film queen, but Gong Li's performance in "Painless Love" is absolutely qualified.
Zhou Bai, who was sitting next to Gong Li, heard her answer, and cheered for her, seeing the unwillingness in Gong Li's eyes that inadvertently flashed, he had to worry about her again, this time she wanted to get the Berlin Film Queen, it was really not as easy as the reporter said, it was not okay to perform well in the movie.
This Berlin Film Festival is known as second-hand Hollywood, under financial pressure Coslick introduced a large number of Hollywood films, it is absolutely impossible not to give awards, and if you want to attract stars to participate in the film festival, acting awards are definitely the goal they will not give up, Gong Li wants to snatch the trophy from Hollywood actresses, it is really too difficult.
As for Zhou Bai himself, he is not completely unimpressed, but if you think about it carefully, he is pessimistic, but fortunately, the movie has a good reputation, these reporters are full of praise for the movie, it can be expected that tomorrow's house magazine will not have a low evaluation of the movie, it is definitely not difficult for him to sell the movie, maybe he can make a lot of money.
It's good to make money, as for whether he can win the award, Zhou Bai is calm, as an actor, of course he wants to win the award, but he is also an investor, and selling the movie is the top priority, whether he can win the award can wait for the award ceremony to know.
