Chapter 146
Because it is a new drama, the movie theater was played frequently in the initial period, and for that housework, Ye Linglan changed into casual clothes and came to the movie theater with sunglasses.
This is also a scene that makes Ye Linglan feel very much, his previous plate, at least within two weeks, as long as the movie theater is playing, it must be full, but now, the theater is only about two-thirds of the people, and every empty seat is extremely dazzling in Ye Linglan's heart.
During the broadcast of the whole movie, the audience's reaction was actually good, they would cheer enthusiastically for Yan Lan's martial arts action, they would cry for Ye Linglan's death, they would also praise the image and acting skills of the actors, and they would also be amazed by the actors they liked.
Ye Linglan couldn't tell what he was feeling at the moment, what he wanted was the audience's love and affirmation of her works, he got it, but he still couldn't avoid the sadness of being misunderstood by more people, and even he couldn't help but laugh at himself for this sentimental emotion.
At this time, Wen Xingying was not around, so he felt that there was no one to confide in.
Xuan, every time I come to this time, I miss you very much, I want to do my best in the entertainment industry, and I want to do my best to play every role, but why, at this moment, I feel like I have fallen into an abyss and can't see a little light? Once again, I experienced the feeling of being lost in the future, and I had this situation when I lost the Golden Crane Award. I didn't have a chance to tell you about it at the time, but this time, it's still the same.
Xuan, are you doing abroad?
The box office of "The Legend of Huo Yu" in half a month is one-third less than that of "Late". Qiao Yu was furious, and the next morning he called Jiang He to come to his office, and at the same time asked Cai Yang and Ye Linglan to put down their work and come over immediately, but they didn't discuss it with him.
When Jiang He arrived, neither of them arrived, and Qiao Yu didn't speak, so he sat aside, although he didn't know his reason, he could always guess some, and he didn't mind wasting a little time to accompany her in a cold war.
What Jiang He didn't expect was that it didn't take long for Cai Yang to come here, and after coming in, he greeted himself, and then walked up to Qiao Yu, and said "Qiao Dong" and said no more, which means that he was waiting for Qiao Yu to speak.
Qiao Yu still didn't speak, and motioned for him to sit next to Jiang He, which should be that he waited for all the people after him to arrive before he started to speak.
Jiang He knew that his thoughts were roughly correct, but he also guessed a little wrong, because Qiao Yu's attitude was not aimed at himself, and he could roughly guess who was going to arrive next and what Qiao Yu was going to say after he arrived. But seriously, if it were according to his own will, he would definitely not support him to do so.
But he didn't consult with himself, yes...... Don't want to stop him yourself?
Jiang He raised his head and glanced at Qiao Yu, and saw that he was still expressionless, but his eyes revealed a kind of stubbornness, as if he was competing with himself, and what he wanted to do must be done.
Jiang He sighed lightly and lowered his head slightly.
Two minutes later, another knock sounded on the door, Jiang He raised his head, and as expected, the person who came in was Ye Linglan.
Seeing him at this time, Jiang He suddenly had a feeling in his heart that he really hadn't taken a good look at him for a long time and talked to him, this feeling echoed in his heart, and it was a burst of irrepressible pain and helplessness.
The child in front of him was dressed in black, still handsome, but there was a faint coldness, as well as the same stubbornness as Qiao Yu, as if he already knew what was going to happen and was ready for everything.
There is something strange in my heart, it is a pity for him.
There is also a kind of powerlessness, is it possible for the relationship between himself and him to return to the way it was before?
Ye Linglan also said "Mr. Jiang" like Cai Yang's routine routine, and then didn't look at him again, and walked in front of Qiao Yu, but Jiang Hedi's gaze stopped at him from this moment on.
Qiao Yu glanced at him, and finally opened his mouth: "Cai Yang, you come over too." ”
Cai Yang walked to Ye Linglan's side as he said.
"Can you explain it to me," Qiao Yudi's voice was cold, but it contained a kind of waves, "What is going on with your movie, why did you add any meeting to Ye Linglan's character?" He was promptly indignant at the incident.
"I'm ......" Cai Yang was just about to speak, when Jiang He, who had been standing beside Qiao Yu since he spoke, stretched out his hand to stop him.
Jiang He turned to Qiao Yu, his expression seemed to be suppressing impatience, "Do you have anything else to ask, continue." ”
Qiao Yu glanced at him and turned to Ye Linglan, "And you, I won't talk about you every time you play a disaster avoidance Dongsheng in the camouflage film, but letting you make a cameo this time actually lowered the box office, you ......"
Qiao Yu said this, Jiang He stopped him this time, "Okay, is there anything else?" ”
"I don't want to see this happen a second time. Let's go. Qiao Yu didn't want to look at the two of them anymore.
Cai Yang turned around and left, but Ye Linglan took one last look at Qiao Yu, who didn't pay attention, but Jiang He saw it in his eyes.
That look contains sourness, grievances, and a touch of firmness, and all kinds of feelings are fused into a deep heart, like the man in front of him, unswerving.
Ye Linglan also left, but that one look made Jiang He's heart ache suddenly.
Leaving Qiao Yu's office, Cai Yang walked in front, but a voice behind him suddenly stopped him:
"Director Cai."
Cai Yang stopped and turned to look at him.
Ye Linglan also stood in place, and then bowed solemnly to Cai Yang, "I'm sorry for the trouble." ”
"......" Cai Yang didn't speak for a while, the two looked at each other silently for a moment, and then Cai Yang smiled slightly, the originally wise face actually showed a little softness, and he said, "Ye Linglan, do you understand my purpose of increasing my memories?" ”
"I understand." Ye Linglan's expression was extremely serious, "I believe that Mr. Jiang also understands, and there are many, many audiences, and they will definitely understand." ”
"Yes." Cai Yang sighed faintly, looking a little distracted, and then looked at the eyes of the person in front of him, "Then do you care about the box office?" If your acting skills are a little worse this time, you won't be talked about, maybe the box office will surpass Mi Cai's "Late", then will you change your performance? ”
This time, Ye Linglan thought for a while before saying: "The box office is very important to me, but it is not the most important, as for whether I will change my performance, to be honest, if someone asks me like this, I might." ”
This is what Ye Linglan said, in Ye Linglan's heart, the box office, acting skills, and fame are not as good as the person he hides deep in his heart, if that person is in need, he can do anything.
But for Ye Linglan, the box office is not important, what matters is his acting skills and the audience's opinion, so he will do his best to play at the highest level in every performance, if there is a conflict between the box office and acting skills, he will not hesitate to choose the latter.
"Ye Linglan, do you like acting?" Cai Yang asked.
"Like. It's something I've loved since I was a kid, and the process of acting is like a stage for me to play freely, and my happiest and most relaxing time is here, and I've always been proud of it. ”
This was the end of the conversation between the two.
Ye Linglan watched Cai Yang's back disappear in front of her eyes, and she still felt a trace of guilt in her heart, whether it was because he was scolded by Qiao Yu, or because she had to lie to him on some issues.
But Ye Linglan understands her heart, whether it is the position of the career of acting in her heart, or the choice she should make when interests and acting skills conflict.
That's enough.
In the office, after Jiang He waited for the two of them to go out, he looked at Qiao Yu, "Do you think this incident is the fault of the two of them?" ”
"Whose fault is that?" Not to be outdone, Qiao Yu looked at him.
"In your opinion, what should the success of a movie depend on?"
Without waiting for Qiao Yu to answer, Jiang He continued: "It depends on the theme and the acting skills of the actors. There is no problem with the theme of our film, because it is a patriotic theme; There is no problem with the actors' acting skills, I watched this film, whether it is Ah Tian or Ah Lan, they have done their best, and their efforts are worthy of recognition. ”
"If the problem with the film is that Ah Tian's acting skills are too good to overshadow Ah Lan's limelight, I think this is too ridiculous. I think, "Jiang He fixed his mind," this is completely a lack of publicity. ”
"Our film is the same as Mi Cai's "Late", only routine publicity has been done, including trailers, actor introductions, etc., and after that, "Late" has not been talked about and there has been no box office fall, and since we have been told, it is necessary to strengthen publicity."
Qiao Yu thought for a while and looked at him, "How to strengthen?" ”
Jiang He smiled slightly, his eyes returned to their former brilliance, and he was still the number one agent who turned his hand into the cloud, "Leave it to me." ”
Leaving Qiao Yu's office, Jiang He thought that in order not to let that child have that kind of look again, he must do his best.
A few days later, Jiang He held a press conference for "The Biography of Huo Yu", and a reporter asked him whether "The Biography of Huo Yu" was really deliberately encouraging this kind of aggression against the territory of other countries as said on the Internet?
This is also an issue that many netizens are keenly concerned about. Now the audience of "The Legend of Huo Yu" is basically Ye Linglan's die-hard fans, and they care more about Ye Linglan's acting skills than the theme of the movie. As for others, some are really worried that there is something wrong with the central idea of the film, and some simply ignore the movie in which Ye Linglan participated. In this case, everyone hopes that Jiang He can give an explanation of what kind of theme the film wants to express.
Jiang He smiled at the cameras of the reporters, and then began to answer solemnly:
"We have all seen that the ending of this film is that General Huo Yu defeated the invaders and defended the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the motherland, and also made the invaders pay a painful price, and the war was stopped and repaired. So, do you still think there's something wrong with our theme? ”
Jiang He has always been a very easy-going attitude when he speaks, but he is easy-going, but he is full of self-confidence, not angry and self-imposing, which fully demonstrates his momentum as the second person in charge of Dongsheng.
At this time, the audience listening to him in front of the TV was thinking, yes, the theme of the movie is no problem. But......
Another reporter asked the audience's thoughts, "But why did the director deliberately add a lot of seemingly unnecessary shots for Ye Linglan?" For example, the last memories and the close-up of Ye Linglan's expression, these deliberate renderings already have a sense of dominance, can you explain this problem? ”
This reporter really said that one of the biggest problems with this movie is that Ye Linglan's limelight obviously overpowers Yan Lan, if Ye Linglan is a decent person, as in "Late", others may not say anything, the problem is that Ye Linglan should be a villain.
The villain overpowers the protagonist, this kind of movie...... Does anyone else want to see it?
And this is also the problem that Jiang He wants to focus on.
"First of all, the background of this film is similar to the confrontation between the Song and Jin and Song Liao in ancient China, whether it is the Liao invasion of the Song Dynasty or the Jin invasion of the Song Dynasty, this is an inevitable phenomenon of historical development, and it cannot be described simply as right or wrong, and this kind of struggle between ethnic groups has also promoted the unification of the country in a large sense, which is talking about the historical background of this film."
"Secondly, the war in the film is to highlight General Huo Yu's ability, so is it necessary to portray the villain character into the feeling of a killing machine? When the director was making this film, the reason why he wanted to give Ye Linglan a close-up and add memories to him was to make his death have a tragic color, so that the audience could understand that even if he is a villain, he should be three-dimensional, vivid, and a flesh-and-blood 'person', and his behavior is not meaningless and valuable, just to reflect the protagonist. ”
In the end, why do you have to say that Ye Linglan covers the limelight of the protagonist? I think the acting skills of the protagonist Yan Lan in this film are very good, as a newcomer is already very good, if everyone can only see each character as the character itself when watching the film, maybe you will like it a little more. ”
This concludes Kang Hyuk's speech.
Dongsheng even went out to speak for the film in person this time, which shows that he really cares about the position of this film in the hearts of the audience, and many viewers really began to pay attention to it after listening to Jiang He's words.
This time, the mood of the audience was very different.
The audience is no longer just paying attention to a certain actor, but really feeling this film in general, from its portrayal of the actors, from the actors' acting skills, and from the director's efforts in the whole film, the audience was surprised to find that this is really a very good film!
Each of its characters is really vivid, they are people who live in the context of that era, they have their own thoughts, their own souls, and of course, their own love and hatred.
Ye Linglan is still a very eye-catching existence, and while the audience appreciates his role transformation, they are also deeply shocked by the charm of the character itself.
That handsome steppe warrior, he fought for his country and his people, and behind his brave and good fighting, there is still a sadness from his identity and from the times.
As for Huo Yu played by Yan Lan, a young young general, he is not a deified existence, not the image of a three-year-old who can write poems, fight invincible opponents all over the world at the age of nine, and understand the tactics of fourteen, he is diligent in martial arts, loves to read, and established the belief of defending the country when he was young, and his talent and acquired efforts have made him brilliant.
It's also a very motivational character.
After the box office of "The Legend of Huo Yu" fell in the second week, it had an upward trend in the third week, but because of the lack of publicity in the early stage and the deliberate smearing of someone, its overall box office is still below "Late".
This is the first time that Dongsheng has lost at the box office for many years, and it also gave Jiang He a big warning.
Qiao Yu said to Jiang He, it's all to blame on that Ye Linglan! The box office of "Late" rose because of him, and the box office of "The Legend of Huo Yu" also fell because of him.
God knows how hard Jiang He has to work to restrain himself from arguing with him.
The crew of "The Legend of Huo Yu" later held a press conference, which was attended by Cai Yang, Yan Lan and some other more important actors, but Ye Linglan still did not show up.
Someone deliberately asked Yan Lan a question, that is, whether he thought Ye Linglan stole his limelight in this film.
This is also a problem that many people are concerned about, the crew asked Ye Linglan to make a cameo in order to increase the charm of the film, but unfortunately it had the opposite effect later, and many people gloated and wanted to hear Yan Lan's statement very much.
How should Yan Lan answer? admit that Ye Linglan is in the limelight? This is undoubtedly exposing his acting skills, and a protagonist is not as good as a supporting role to attract the audience.
What about not admitting it? This is an obvious blind eye, because it has become a fact that Ye Linglan steals the limelight from him.
In this case, Yan Lan told reporters that what he should do is not to think about these aspects, but to work hard to improve his acting skills, and make greater progress in cooperation with others.
No one knew that when Yan Lan went home that night, she buried her head on the pillow and got up for a long time, and then changed the already soaked pillowcase as if nothing had happened.
Ye Linglan's cameo in "The Legend of Huo Yu" was also completed in one day, but because this was a film filmed internally by Dongsheng, the step of eating together was omitted, and then Ye Linglan drove home, remembering that he and Mo Ziheng went to KTV a few days ago, and couldn't help but wonder if Yan Lan would also invite him to play somewhere.
It turns out that Yan Lan did something similar to Mo Ziheng, he did not invite Ye Linglan to KTV, but asked him to ...... A large playground in the city.
Aside from anything else, what they did was right, after all, Ye Linglan helped in their film, and it was normal for them to thank them.
But Ye Linglan was thinking, why was the place that Yan Lan proposed to go to not half as reliable as Mo Ziheng's?
He's still a kid.
