After leaving the theater, Shen Lian directly got into the car arranged by Guangguang Pictures and went to the TV station to record the interview arranged by "Entertainment Live" for himself.

"Shen Lian, hello!"

"Hello Yanagi!" We had just met at the cinema an hour ago, but because we were in front of the camera, we said hello quite formally.

"To be honest, I really never thought that there would be a person who could win two Best Actor trophies at the Golden Horse Golden Statue Award at the age of less than 24." Liu Yan praised with appreciation: "And the acting skills are really superb." ”

"It's overrated." Shen Lian hurriedly said: "Moreover, I was not yet 24 years old when I won the Academy Award. Hehe. ”

"How could you be ruthless enough to take on such a ruinous movie?" Liu Yan was puzzled. The self-destructive image in "Witness" is really a big breakthrough in the eyes of fans, and even affects the box office results of the movie to a certain extent.

In fact, after Shen Lian's breakthrough performance, in the domestic film industry, it has become a trend for handsome male stars to self-destruct their images to appear in movies.

Huang Xiaoming added a scar to his face when filming "Zhao's Orphan", Xie Tingfeng shaved his head during the filming of "October Siege", and the characters he played were also very unmetered, and the next "Informant" continued to have a bald head.

"I'm okay, I don't care too much about image when making movies, in fact, I have a certain amount of ruining my image in movies such as "Casting a Name", "District 9", and "Witness", maybe there is a gradual process. So, when the makeup artist talked about styling, I didn't really have much objection, so I just let him wear it. ”

"What about the next film plans? Will it continue this route? Liu Yan asked.

"Actually, I'm still reading the script, and the most important thing is to finish the filming of the TV series at hand first. Let me tell you in advance, it will be very handsome in the TV series. may be Shen Lian's most handsome film. Shen Lian twisted his body, changed to a comfortable sitting position, and said.

"Let's talk about the process of filming "District 9", many friends want to know, how did they get the opportunity to star in such a movie?" This is also a topic that many fans on the Internet pay attention to.

"When I went to the Venice Film Festival, director Ang Lee recommended me, met director Peter Jackson and director Neil, and then a relatively short test was finalized. It's very simple and smooth. Personally, I would like to thank Director Ang Lee. And I would like to thank the company for supporting me in Hollywood. Shen Lian began to accept the speech mode, all kinds of thanks.

"Did you go to the Venice Film Festival and then get an audition for "District 9"?" Liu Yan said in surprise.

"Yes, very lucky. Then at that time, I was preparing for the hosting of the Sino-Korean Song Club, and I turned down many movie appointments, and concentrated on studying the script for almost half a year, and I only went to Los Angeles in April 08. I didn't pick up a single movie in the middle, and I pushed it all off. The whole mind was almost on the character of Vicus. Shen Lian said. It's also a summary of myself.

"At that time, there were rumors that you would play the role of Zhuge Liang or Zhou Yu in "Red Cliff", and it was also rumored that you would play "Painted Skin". And then you didn't pick it up, just for "District 9"? Liu Yan thought for a moment and recalled. As a host, she is most aware of these rumors.

"At that time, there were invitations to audition, but the whole mind was on "District 9", and I almost didn't care about anything. Then I went to Los Angeles in April, and within a few days of my arrival, I transferred to Johannesburg, where I filmed for a long time. Finally, I flew back to Los Angeles to make up some shots. It was almost the end of June before returning home. "It was during that time that something big happened in the country.

"Was most of the shot shot in Johannesburg, not on a green screen?" Liu Yan asked.

"Yes, the location is a slum, and the location should not be too difficult. At that time, the staff started to clean up the venue two weeks in advance, but when our crew went, there was still a peculiar smell in the whole filming location, and we couldn't clean it up. Shen Lian complained.

"So what to do in the end?" Liu Yan said "nervously".

"Get used to it slowly. When I went there, my friend stuffed 8 boxes of orange-flavored air fresheners in my backpack, and I was too troublesome to go through customs, but it became a lifesaver when I got there. Shen Lian explained.

"Then they locals can't help it?"

"The locals will use a kind of grass and put it in the house to remove the odor, but it also has a faint bitter taste. I was afraid of nasal allergies, so I always relied on air fresheners. Shen Lian explained.

"But the hard work of Yiqiē is finally worth it, right, the box office reputation of "District 9" is a double harvest. In fact, the movies starred by Shen Lian seem to have a good reputation, and some people praise your eye for picking films, what do you think? ”

"A lot of times I tend to work with a team that I know well. The movies I have shot so far, Chen Musheng directed two, Chen Xinxin directed two, Er Dongsheng directed one movie, and there was another TV series, and then "Eavesdropping" was also created by that team. So it's relatively familiar and I know how to shoot. And then the level of production of these directors is still guaranteed, so, yes, that's all. Shen Lian also gave his own interpretation.

"So sometimes working with a fixed team doesn't limit yourself? Or you may miss out on some good books. ”

"You can't have both. I don't mean to just work with them. It's just that I'm more willing to work with them. ”

"Okay, thank you Shen Lian for accepting our interview with "Entertainment Live", and I look forward to "District 9" continuing to refresh the box office results."

"Thank you." Shen Lian also stood up and shook hands with the host Liu Yan. With the director team playing the board, this interview has come to an end.

"Uh, Yanagi." Liu Yan was about to watch the replay, when Shen Lian suddenly stopped her.

"Huh?" Liu Yan turned his head to look at Shen Lian.

"Are you interested in starring in a TV series?" Shen Lian invited Liu to develop it.

"Your "You from the Stars"?" Liu Yan was pleasantly surprised. She doesn't want to just be an entertainment host, she has always had the idea of developing her acting career. previously played the role of a rouge shop customer in the movie "Painted Skin" produced by Guangguang.

"That's right, a character with a bit of a drama. starred in a female star, the ending was not too good, and she was murdered by her lover. "The role of Han Na (Han Yoola) has been looking for actors, and Shen Lian feels that Liu Yan is quite suitable. is very ambitious about his career, and then debuted for many years, although he has some fame, but the overall is still tepid.

"No problem, I'm willing to act." There aren't many scenes, so what. At this point in time, the Internet popularity of Shen Lian's idol drama is not too high, Jing Tian's previous works are almost zero, and now it is almost well-known just because of his participation in "You from the Star". Being able to participate in such a work is definitely an opportunity for the actors. Moreover, he can also have a good relationship with Shen Lian, the future leader of the Chinese film industry.

"Then you can discuss it with the program team at that time, and it will take about two to three weeks. Great work. Shen Lian nodded at Liu Yan. Turned and left the interview room.

Over the next week, "District 9" continued to maintain its invincible box office dominance.

Six days after its release, it broke 100 million, and 10 days after its release, it broke 150 million. Everyone was shouting, "The wolf is coming." ”

And the most impacted was Chen Kun, who had slightly pressed Shen Lian before, and Zhao Wei, who was very dissatisfied with Shen Lian, co-starred in "Mulan". With the launch of "Thorn Tomb" and "Three Guns Shooting Surprise", the film schedule of "Mulan" will undoubtedly go further down, which is even worse for "Mulan".

After this battle, Chen Kun was officially completely left behind by Shen Lian.
