Yanjing Shichahai, Lu Bu's large courtyard.

In the small garden in the front yard, there are Xifu begonias and ginkgo biloba, and the branches are straight and tall.

The pavilion used to drink tea and rest on the four-corner cornices is even more comfortable in the afterglow of the setting sun.

In recent days, away from the city, there is less hustle and bustle, and life is a little more quiet and calm.

"The newspaper you wanted." Yu Feihong came back from outside and laid down a stack of newspapers on the stone table.

"What did you buy?" Lu Bu saw that she was carrying a lot of large and small bags, so he stretched his neck to look over.

"I didn't buy anything, they were all new clothes from the endorsed brands." Yu Feihong opened it and showed him it, and then went back to the house.

Lu Bu picked up a newspaper and read it.

It was specially asked to be bought by Yu Feihong, an entertainment newspaper about reports related to "Myth" and "Wuji".

He is very concerned about this, one is starring himself, and the other may become a box office competitor.

The first one, "Entertainment Knows Early", the front page position is the press conference that Chen Kaige just finished.

Judging from the on-site photos posted on the post, the star-studded press conference was full of stars, and the luxurious cast of "Wu Ji" was all unveiled, including Zhang Dongjian, known as the most handsome guy in South Korea, Japanese acting superstar Hiroyuki Sanada, Liu Ye, who has risen the fastest among the new generation in the mainland, and Zhang Bozhi and Xie Tingfeng, who are popular in Xiangjiang.

Looking down, it is a collection of reporters' questions to Chen Kaige.

The first question is quite acute: "The acting skills of Zhang Dongjian, Sanada Hiroyuki, Liu Ye, and Zhang Bozhi have been recognized to varying degrees, so as a topic idol, can Xie Tingfeng play such an important role?" ”

"Tut-tut, I really dare to ask, I'm still on the scene."

Lu Bu lamented that these reporters also gave up in order to get some "hot" news.

But the "topic idol" is quite appropriate for Xie Tingfeng, and his topics are not ordinary.

signed a "deed of sale" with the emperor to help his father Xie Xian repay his debts; drove into a traffic accident, and in order to get rid of responsibility, he found someone to cover himself; fell in love with Wang Jingwen, broke up, got back together and broke up; and Zhang Weijian beat the little white dragon king Bozhao violently with Zhang Weijian in the crew of "Little Fish and Flowers......

The point is, every topic is very exciting.

And Chen Kaige's answer was: "Ting Feng's acting skills are seriously underestimated, he has the ability and strength to become the leader of the new generation!" ”

How do you say that?

Xie Tingfeng has debuted for so long, and his acting skills have been criticized.

Similar to Zhang Weijian, no matter what role he plays, he is a set of performances, convulsions, facial paralysis, and pretending to be cool.

"I still need to work hard, Xiao Xie."

Xie Tingfeng is half of his fan, and Lu Bu is not easy to say.

The second question is normal, which is to ask what to expect from "Wuji".

In answering this question, Chen Kaige is not modest at all, and said bluntly: ""Wuji" will be an oriental fantasy epic that makes the audience cry, in fact, this movie has been in my mind for a long time, has been brewing, has been revising, and is still being revised until now, its structure is very interesting, but this meaning is often found during the filming process, the background of the story is ancient, but it tells very modern emotions, it is indeed different from my previous films, but the focus is still on freedom, Love and fate. ”

If Lu Bu hadn't read the script, he would have really believed what he said.

Shed tears? He couldn't find where the tears were.

As for the oriental fantasy epic, this will have to wait until the final film comes out to be judged.

The last question became acute again: "The biggest failure of Zhang Yimou's "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" is believed by the industry to lie in the description of the story and emotions, the thinness of the story, the lack of details, and the emptiness of emotions. ”

Chen Kaige naturally would not belittle his opponent in front of the media, it was a relatively stupid move, and he only said: "Martial arts and stunts are just forms, I hope that in the end, "Wuji" will only complete a little bit to 'move the audience'." ”

Although he did not directly evaluate Lao Mouzi and his two movies, the "moving the audience" is the so-called "three-minute wonderful" of Lao Mouzi, which represents the two poles of the movie.

The implication is that I will not take the path of failure of Lao Mouzi.

"How? What did Director Chen say at the press conference? Yu Feihong came to the pavilion from the house.

"Judging from the few questions answered, revealing a lot of ambition, I feel that he wants to use "Wu Ji" to set a 'benchmark' for the increasingly fierce trend of big productions when Zhang Yimou's "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" have staged the paradox of box office and public opinion evaluation one after another." Lu Bu made a simple summary.

"What kind of benchmark?" Yu Feihong sat down on the chair next to him.

"In layman's terms, it means both applause and applause." Lu Bu poured her a cup of tea.

"After the millennium, the movies that have been acclaimed and acclaimed can be counted on one hand, which is difficult." Yu Feihong shook his head and asked instead, "Did you mention you?" ”

"What do you want me to do?" Lu Bu smiled and said, "Isn't mentioning me to increase the attention of competitors." ”

"Yes." Yu Feihong took a sip of tea, then leaned on his shoulder, and looked at the newspaper in his hand.

The second copy, "Xiangjiang Film and Television", this is the news that reports "Myth".

"This ......"

Seeing the layout, Lu Bu and Yu Feihong glanced at each other, their eyes full of surprise.

[Cheng Cage joined "Myth" and cooperated with director Tang Jili in an adventure action film for the fourth time! ] 】

"Big brother also participated?" Yu Feihong was very surprised, and even a little incredulous.

"It seems to be ......" Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "There is no role suitable for him, is it a cameo supporting role?" ”

"Isn't the eldest brother also the emperor's, maybe he was invited to pull the box office under his name." Yu Feihong analyzed.

"Possibly." Lu Bu nodded in agreement.

Look down.

It turned out that Cheng Cage was going to play the villain boss "Mr. Gu", and brought the family class to serve as the action team.

Seeing this, Yu Feihong was surprised: "Doesn't the eldest brother never play the role of a villain?" ”

Lu Bu recalled and said: "For those who have played villains, there is a movie called "Wind and Rain Twin Meteors". ”

Cheng Cage once explained this matter in an interview, saying that he actually does not reject playing the role of a villain, but from the perspective of a small movie fan, in order to set a good example for them, he finally stayed away from the villain role.

In fact, not only does he not play a villain, but he also doesn't see very bloody scenes in his movies, but more witty scenes.

In fact, it was an accident to participate in the cage.

By chance, he returned to the Emperor and saw Tang Jili and Yang Shoucheng talking about the preparation of "Myth".

After understanding, I immediately liked this story and wanted to play the protagonist Meng Yi very much.

Cheng Cage also thought that he could win this role with one sentence, because he and Tang Jili have been friends for many years, and they are highly valued by Yang Shoucheng, so it can be said that it is difficult to refuse his request in public and private.

But the reality did not go as he wished, before Yang Shouchenghao held 300 million Hong Kong dollars for him to shoot the movie "Flying Dragon Rebirth", but the global box office was only 34 million US dollars, and the loss was very serious; Second, Yang Shoucheng and Tang Jili prefer Lu Bu to play the protagonist Meng Yi, and they have signed a contract.

After the cage request was fruitless, in order not to regret it, he could only retreat and choose a character for a cameo.

Of course, in the end, it is called "bringing new people".

But to be honest, with the addition of Cheng Cage, it will make the filming of this movie much smoother.

Because, the filming locations include the Xi'an Qin Warriors Museum, the lava caves in Jiuxiang, Yunnan, the cliff waterfalls of Lishan, the Disha Holy Mountain, the Disha Temple and the ancient tomb of the Holy Shadi in India...... Wait, with his influence, it will be easier to go to these places.

Yu Feihong sighed: "Now, the lineup of "Myth" is no worse than "Wuji", no, it should be much more luxurious." As he spoke, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said excitedly: "This is a good thing for you, you can gain a foothold in the film industry through this movie." ”

Lu Bu nodded, it was indeed a good opportunity, and he said at the moment: "I have to perform well." ”

Yu Feihong smiled and said, "You have no problem, it depends on Director Tang's directing skills and the action design of the family class." ”

"Hiss......" Lu Bu took a breath and groaned: "Although this is Director Tang's first costume romance film, I believe in his ability, after all, the script has been formed, and no matter how you shoot it, it will not be bad." ”

Tang Jili is famous for directing action movies, such as "Police Story 3", "Thunder Police" and other movies, but since the turn of the millennium, he has thought of transformation, and he is not willing to make action movies that only fight and kill, but wants to make some beautiful and romantic romance movies.

It's the first time I've dabbled in this kind of theme, yes, but the director's skills are there, and everything is changing.

Then, Lu Bu said: "As for the action design of the family class, there is no need to worry about this, if it really doesn't work, won't there be Director Tang and me." ”

This is a good point, Tang Jili and him both have the ability to command martial arts.

But all of this will not be known until filming begins.

And when they were talking about "Myth" and "Wuji", these two movies were also being discussed on the Internet.

"The box office competition for domestic films next year is a bit fierce."

"Zhou Gaochi's "Kung Fu" seems to be set for the Spring Festival, as well as Xu Laowei's "Seven Swords", as well as Zhou Jilun and Chen Guanxi's "Initial D".

"You said that there is one missing, "Hancheng Raiders" starring Liang Chaowei, Ren Xianqi and Shu Qi."

"The investment is not at the same level, and I am still optimistic about "Wuji" and "Mythology".

"However, what epic fantasy film is Brother Chen going to make, how do I feel unreliable?"

"If you want to say that, then Tang Jili is not reliable to make love action movies."

"What I'm more worried about is that whether it's Lu Bu or Xie Tingfeng, the movies he is currently participating in are not very good, and I feel that I can't afford the box office and word of mouth."

"They are not the protagonists in these movies, and the box office and word-of-mouth have little to do with them."

"Lu Bu is short of a good script."

"I hope the story of 'Myth' is not too bad."

……

Netizens express their opinions, and there are those who support them.

There was no tearing scene.

Judging from the points of discussion, they all have great expectations for the two movies "Wuji" and "Myth".

——————

On August 14, the 28th Summer Olympic Games kicked off at 10 p.m. Yenching time in Athens, the capital of Greece.

There is still a period of time before "Myth" starts, and Lu Bu is still enjoying a good vacation.

And these days, I am all accompanying Yu Feihong.

Managing his studio and his life, like a big wife, naturally hurts a little more.

The opening ceremony was being broadcast on the television.

Since Coubertin founded the modern Olympic Games at the beginning of the 20th century, the Olympic spirit has been the life, soul and core of all ceremonial activities.

And tonight, the Olympics are home.

When a fantastic "Aegean Sea" appeared in the middle of the main stadium, when the five rings burned in the Aegean Sea, when the athletes holding the five-ring flag ran through 28 strips of paper and ran through the 28 modern Olympic Games...... The history of the Olympics is condensed in this moment, and so is the Greek civilization.

"This is the first time I've seen the opening ceremony of the Olympics." Yu Feihong said.

"It's the first time I've seen it, too." After Lu Bu finished speaking, he smiled slyly and said, "Let you take another first." ”

"Phew." Yu Feihong snorted with a smile in his eyes.

"This opening ceremony is quite interesting." Lu Bu instantly pulled the topic back.

"I'm looking forward to our own Olympic Opening Ceremony in four years' time, it's going to be very exciting." Yu Feihong's eyes flashed.

"When you say that, I'm looking forward to it." Sports is one of the things that Lu Bu is most interested in besides acting, and as the world's biggest sporting event, he has always paid attention to it.

In 2008, the Yenching Olympics was also the first time that China hosted the Olympic Games.

China has been up and down for 5,000 years, and there are too many things that can be presented, so there are even more things to look forward to.

"You say, how about I go get a gold medal and come back?" Lu Bu said suddenly.

"Huh?" Yu Feihong was stunned.

"Isn't there an archery event, if I go, this gold medal will not be captured." Lu Bu said confidently.

"yes." Yu Feihong's eyes were longing, and he said, "But the bow and arrow used in the competition seem to be different from the one you use." ”

"I've played with a modern recurve bow a few times, and it's easy to shoot the bullseye at a distance of 70 meters." Lu Bu said lightly.

"However, you have to qualify for the Olympic Games first, as if you have to get rankings and points in various domestic and international competitions, and then enter the ......national team," Yu Feihong said everything he knew, saying: "You have to train year after year, day after day, and after entering the national team, you can't sing and act, so you have to follow the arrangement even if you connect advertising endorsements." ”

"It's so complicated......" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows.

"Yes." Yu Feihong shrugged.

"Forget it." Lu Bu dispelled this thought.
