Chapter 0299 "Big Soldier and Little General" premiered at the box office
I said I would try it first, but I didn't try it so quickly.
Xu Hengzhou and Liu Yiqian have to finish the middle and late plots of the whole movie first, so that they can concentrate on how to shape and fit the role, and then go to play the first half of their youth.
For Xu Hengzhou, the second half of this movie is very good.
Because the film was familiar to him, he was able to find a general direction to shape it.
Of course, he will not completely shape the character characteristics in the original movie, but will create the character according to some new plot needs and his own vision of the character.
For Liu Yiqian, the character of Huang Xiaoxian is really a little difficult.
She wasn't sure where it was.
The main reason is that Huang Xiaoxian's personality is very distinct, and it is very contrasting.
Usually works seriously and diligently, but when he speaks, he seems to have a very low emotional intelligence, but he is the kind of knife mouth and tofu heart.
It looks like the copper wall is ironclad, the golden bell jar, the iron cloth shirt and everything else, in fact, if you really have the patience to subtly pry open her hedgehog shell, you can feel the softness of her heart.
and found out that this is a little girl who needs to be protected, and she is not so strong at all.
Anyway, the description of the heroine in the book sounds decent, and even most girls can empathize.
In this way, under the high requirements of the 21st century, which girl who works hard outside is not strong on the outside and weak on the inside, who is not a King Kong Barbie?!
In short, even Liu Yiqian felt that Huang Xiaoxian had a part of her own shadow.
But it's also such a role that is the most difficult to play.
Because of the sharp words, a little more of this kind of thing may be turned into meanness, and a little less may be no deterrent, and it is especially like the kind of acting, which can make people see the weakness in your heart at a glance.
You have to act out that feeling of persistence, believing that what you say is right, that it's for your good, and then you have to say that right.
Liu Yiqian can understand this question when she does reading comprehension, but in fact, when she acts, she either plays too much, and plays the character of Huang Xiaoxian as a bit hateful and difficult to get along with.
Or act too soft, like a little milk cat that wields a meat pad but can actually be seen through at a glance and has no deterrent power.
It was the first time for her to play a role with this kind of personality trait, and she really felt that she couldn't start.
The main reason is that she feels that there is no side of Huang Xiaoxian in her personality traits at all.
She has always been a more peaceful and Buddhist person.
"Yes, Xu Hengzhou, is it because of my personality that I can't act?"
Xu Hengzhou glanced at Liu Yiqian: "Are you sure that when you scolded reporters, there was no resemblance between that style and Huang Xiaoxian?" ”
Liu Yiqian shook her head blankly: "No, I answer the reporter's questions very seriously." ”
"Oh, that's right." Xu Hengzhou asked a different question: "Then are you sure you don't have the slightest resemblance to Huang Xiaoxian when you scolded me?" ”
"Nope!" Liu Yiqian blinked, and this time the answer was more affirmative: "I'm pointing out your mistakes very seriously, okay!" And every time you slap me first! ”
"Uh-huh." Xu Hengzhou nodded: "What you said is right." ”
Liu Yiqian ignored Xu Hengzhou, turned around and left.
It's unreasonable, how can she be the same as Huang Xiaoxian?
Obviously, she thinks she is still very gentle.
Impossible, impossible!
When it came time to shoot again, Liu Yiqian couldn't help but think of her usual relationship with Xu Hengzhou, especially in recent months, probably because Xu Hengzhou's sense of security was sufficient, and she was indeed a little presumptuous.
I like to talk and do things in a different tone...... I like to use the opening sentence form of "Alas, I said Xu Hengzhou-" to talk to Xu Hengzhou.
Ahem, that's a bit unpleasant.
Well, if there is one, she will be crowned, and if there is none, she will be better to Xu Hengzhou in the future!
But in short, Liu Yiqian felt that she had found a little feeling.
She could also instantly feel Huang Xiaoxian's deep emotions when she spoke.
That's because Huang Xiaoxian thinks that he is very sincere, and that sincere person speaks without leaving a line, pointing to the core, and telling the truth is for your good!
After Liu Yiqian sorted out this logic, she became inexplicably straightforward.
Then the scene went much smoother.
Then Xu Hengzhou suddenly experienced the feeling of "home" on the set.
Well, this Sissi is all too familiar.
Let him pick up the lines very naturally, and say it, the poor tune doesn't need to be acted at all, so it comes out naturally.
Director Teng Huatao watched the performance behind the monitor, and instantly felt the fun of pulling between the two.
That feeling is not an ambiguous sense of love or anything, but a chess opponent, tit-for-tat, Wang Ba meets mung bean, even if he doesn't look at the right eye, this posture also gives the right feeling.
It makes people unconsciously want to chase and see a reversal.
However, if it is just a pulling scene between these two people, it is estimated that it will still be the same as the original "33 Days of Broken Love", which will become a story about the heroine and her male girlfriend.
And the intersection of time and space only makes this fun a little stronger.
But if you add to this the exchange of souls of the two when they were young.
It felt different in an instant.
The staff who witnessed the whole filming process on the set are very familiar with this plot, and they belong to the first audience who first watched the second half of the movie, and then went back and began to look forward to the first half.
However, although Xu Hengzhou and Liu Yiqian said that they had filmed the second half of the movie, it still took time to shoot the first half.
Because if you want to achieve the juvenile feeling that the director needs, you need to cooperate with the nutritionist to lose weight for about a month and a half.
During this period, in order not to delay the progress of the film, the director decided to shoot the scenes where the movie did not require the male and female protagonists to appear, and edited the second half of the previously filmed movie.
By the time a month passed, in late April, Xu Hengzhou's weight loss had already been quite effective.
At the premiere of the movie "Big Soldier", when he appeared, everyone who saw him was shocked.
"Xu Hengzhou, are you seriously ill?"
Today, more than the first person asked this, mainly because Xu Hengzhou looked very empty in a suit, and he was much thinner than in the past.
You must know that because Xu Hengzhou used to exercise regularly, among the many male stars in the entertainment industry, his figure is also one of the best.
This is something that even Liu Yiqian has recognized.
Anyway, one day, when Xu Hengzhou was idle and bored, he went to find some fitness photos of male stars to look around, silently compared them with himself, and then picked out a few of the more powerful ones, and asked Liu Yiqian which one he liked the most, so that he could have a better direction to struggle.
As a result, after Liu Yiqian looked at it, she brought out Xu Hengzhou's photo, and then showed it to him, saying that I like this.
Xu Hengzhou's self-confidence burst on the spot, okay!
But this weight loss activity is really a sin, it doesn't mean that he loses weight immediately, he has to gain weight before he can lose weight, he has to destroy the previous muscle group first, and then he can slowly lose meat.
Anyway, Xu Hengzhou watched the muscles he had cultivated with great difficulty disappearing little by little, which made him feel that the girl he had raised with his own hands was about to get married.
Sorry.
And it's also painful, because as long as the muscles are trained and the habit of fitness is maintained, then it is easier to stick to it.
But if a person with a poor physique trains his muscles from scratch, it will be much more difficult.
Xu Hengzhou has always been a little skeptical that what the dietitian said would not be false according to his weight loss method, and he would be able to train his muscles back soon.
He was afraid that if he was so reduced, he wouldn't be able to practice back after that!
There's no way around that, for the sake of the character's needs.
And the point is that Liu Yiqian is also working hard to lose weight this time.
Even Xu Hengzhou felt that Liu Yiqian fought more than him!
Not only do you eat a balanced diet according to the dietitian's instructions every day, but you also do some fitness and shaping programs.
In particular, the effect of Liu Yiqian and other processes is particularly significant.
It's not necessarily a good thing for a man in his 20s to be 18 years old in terms of body shape.
But if a girl returns to the time of 18 years old and in her most youthful and graceful years......
It's going to drive her crazy!
Liu Yiqian is crazy, looking in the mirror every day, and weighing dozens of times a day.
I also deliberately bought a bunch of the smallest clothes and came back, saying that there is still a little bit of reluctance to wear it now, and we will not be reluctant immediately.
Xu Hengzhou watched Liu Yiqian lose weight so self-disciplined, and instantly had a sense of crisis.
I had to follow the roll hard.
In short, when he reappeared in front of everyone this time, he was asked by so many people if he had a serious illness, Xu Hengzhou's mood was still quite complicated.
He replied seriously to those who cared about him one by one, saying that he deliberately controlled his weight and body shape because of the needs of the role.
As soon as he said this, everyone naturally had to ask, which drama made such a big sacrifice for.
As a result, as soon as Xu Hengzhou said that it was "Thirty-Three Lovelorns", everyone stopped going into this topic and passed it with a haha.
Xu Hengzhou is helpless, there is also a chain of contempt in the film industry, and obvious urban light comedy romance movies like "33 Days of Broken Love" are undoubtedly at the bottom of the food chain.
Everyone unanimously thinks that if you want to make a certain image for the character or sacrifice my physical health, then the first choice is to make sacrifices for art films, followed by military films, and then feature films, which really can't work, and commercial popcorn films can also be.
But it's a bit ...... to make some image sacrifices for a movie about light-hearted love
Xu Hengzhou sighed, he still hasn't met the preset requirements at all, and when he really meets the requirements of Director Teng Huatao according to the nutritionist's plan, he will lose his body to the appearance of a teenager, I'm afraid they will not understand it even more at that time.
If it weren't for the fact that he knew that the movie itself was remarkable, coupled with the right adaptation, it was very likely to explode, and after all, it was a movie that he invested in, he would not have made this choice.
However, today is the premiere of the movie "Big Soldier", and everyone's attention will not be too much on the size of the actors, but more on the relationship between the actors and this movie.
However, when Xu Hengzhou was asked by a reporter, what was the most impressive thing about filming this movie?
Xu Hengzhou still couldn't help but answer: "The muscle groups that were exercised during that time were particularly beautiful. ”
……
For the promotion and distribution company of the "Big Soldier" movie, its entire series of promotional activities is particularly easy to do.
First of all, the two male protagonists, one is Jackie Chan, whose name is guaranteed at the box office, and the other is the popular actor Xu Hengzhou, who has been popular for a year and is expected to continue to be popular.
And this is the second time that Xu Hengzhou has served as the male lead in a movie other than "Mr. Tree", which won the actor award.
This slogan alone is already worth watching, not to mention that Xu Hengzhou just won the Best Supporting Actor award at the Academy Awards last month, which proves that Xu Hengzhou is not like most of the media as rumored, after winning an actor, he began to give up his career and start falling in love.
People are in love and career, and they have been working silently, isn't this a lot of accumulation? !
After the brief interview session, it was time to get to the point.
"Big Soldier and Little General" movie screening session.
In 227 BC, the Wei Guo army was ambushed by the Liang army at Phoenix Mountain, and after the bloody battle, only the seriously wounded Wei Guo general and the Liang soldiers who pretended to be dead survived......
Xu Hengzhou plays the role of the general of the Wei State, and Jackie Chan plays the role of the soldier of the Liang State.
People who watched this movie, not to mention the plot, only saw the characters, and instantly felt the unexpected contradiction and fit of Xu Hengzhou and Jackie Chan.
The two of them are really suitable for the characters in the play, which makes people enter the plot at once, looking forward to how these two people with very different personalities will behave in the current predicament.
Especially the brutal war situation at the beginning, the audience suddenly felt the basic color of the times of this movie, and even the Warring States background that everyone is not so familiar with has become within reach......
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
After more than two hours of filming, most of the viewers present had complicated expressions.
They originally thought that the film would be a purely commercial film.
At most, there is a big scene with a sense of historical epic.
As a result, the gloomy tone of the whole movie, as well as the core of the whole story, and even the personality collision of the two protagonists, including the subsequent plot development, conveyed the two words "anti-war" to the audience very clearly and clearly.
This turned out to be an anti-war movie?!
What can I say about such a movie?
The depth is there, and the plot is good, but the follow-up audience feedback may not be too good.
Nowadays, most audiences come to the cinema to watch a movie, or want to watch a relaxing one.
However, even though critics estimated the box office of the film to be lower than originally expected, the film still topped the box office on its premiere day.
